I'm very much looking forward to this game as I'm still buzzing from Saturday's fantastic turnaround. The lift that this must have given to the players will hopefully carry forward to this match.

Being realistic, the title is now a 3 horse race. Given their 2 point lead and the remaining fixtures, Billericay must be slight favourites, but with the team spirit and never-say-die attitude in our squad we have more than a decent chance. It can all change in a heartbeat and I'm sure all 3 contenders will have some ups and downs in the run in. It wouldn't surprise me if it all came down to the final day.

Blimey! Horsham have it quite good too. Let’s hope for Cheshunt style anomalies!

We have four home and five away whereas Bill and Horsham have five home and four away.
The quality of opponents also seems slightly tougher for us.
However I believe that if we win all our games we are likely to be champions. If we win 8 and draw one the battle will go to the final game imo

For those of you who have not been to this ground, you are in for a treat, this has to be one of the prettiest non-league grounds. There is even a pub embedded into the terrace, where you can taste the delights of the local brewery. I'm going to get there early for this one and enjoy the OG Bill's restaurant before making my way to the ground.

It might be worth getting the car share thread going for this game as we know it will be another hard game.

I’m on son in laws stag tomorrow so can’t make but will have Flashscore on. COYD

[ozymandias]

Contrary to previous posts I have caught up with things now and hopefully the lad's can get a result today on the back of the win last Saturday.
A tough game ahead but we have it in the tank to keep the pressure on Riccay.
An exciting time of the season and who would have thought 5 months ago we'd be involved as we are today.
Come on Ade and the lad's.

What a beautiful spring day it is for a football match

I think we have the harder fixture of the 3 title contenders today as Lewes are a good side getting results at Dover away and at CVPM’s.

Looking at their form they seem better away from home having won only 1 of their last 5 fixtures at the dripping pan and sit near the bottom of the home form guide.

Hopefully Ady and the lads are on their A game today which I’m sure they will be! Last time I went to the Dripping Pan Danny Harris kicked a ball which hit my pint of beer spraying it over most of clothing in the warm up . I smelt amazing for the rest of the game however still had a great day!

COYD’sssss

I think I was last at the Dripping Pan for a 2-0 win in what must have been sn FA Trophy match back in the eighties. Nice ground although one of our fans got smacked as a local yokel took exception yo getting beat.

What a rip off this place is, absolutely joke.
In the bar £4 for a small bog average sausage roll and if you want a drink you have to pay £1 for a plastic cup but they won't give you your money back on it.
Got here early as its supposed to be a good place to visit!!
Won't spend another penny and hope we don't have to come back any tme soon.

Wish I'd gone to the pub know like a load of others, can see why they did.

Add to that, just got "treated" to a box of chips......
Luke warm, soggy and at £4.50

Is anybody else having difficulty in tuning into the commentary? The current link seems to be connecting to a commentary on 7 January. Thanks

Another anxious afternoon. Hoping it turns around by the time our train from Cornwall gets us home as it did on way down last week.
Up the Darts. Maybe there next week?

HT 1-0

Started the half well and in the first 15 mins had a few half decent chances.
Then we gave a few sloppy passes away and they've been the better side since.
