Confessions

Right, so the more observant of you will have noticed that there have been no blog posts in a while. That is sadly because we have been unable to attend any recent matches.
The replay between Halifax and Stortford finished in a comfortable win for Halifax, but unfortunately, I couldn't afford the time to go, and Jake was in an important meeting all evening.
With my final year exams on the horizon and numerous looming essay deadlines, I could again not afford the time to get to the next fixture, Halifax Vs Rushden. That morning the Shay stadium was covered in snow, and quite rightly (based on recent history) decided to save £30 by not travelling, assuming the game would be called off. Unfortunately the game went ahead, and ended in a Rushden victory.
We are both very dissapointed by the events of recent weeks, and apologise to our abundant and adoring public. However, we remain positive, and will continue to follow the Trophy until it's completion, despite having already failed in our mission.
I did travel to Margate on a cold Tuesday night for nothing!
The next match in the schedule is Rushden Vs York on 23rd Feburary. We will definitely be there this time (weather permitting!) and will provide an extra specially good match report to make up for our previous failings.
