Left home at about 12:30 and got the bus to Streatham station and got the 12:50 train to West Sutton and got to the ground at about 13:15. Had to sell programmes on the other side of the ground today and was pretty dull as there was nobody to chat to and only sold about 15 programmes leading up to KO. Finished selling just after KO as the person on the turnstile at the Collingwood Rec end closed the turnstile. We completely dominated the 1st half just didn't create as many chances as we should have. Our goal was a gift of an O.G by their captain and we should have been more than 1-0 given how dominant we were. 2nd half was one of the worst halves of football I've seen at Sutton since I've been going (and that was 3 yrs ago!!!). We were very poor 2nd half and had about one good chance. Guiseley had quite a few chances but were poor finishers and that is what kept us in the game. The weather was strange as it would be torrential rain for about 5 mins with hail and the next mins really sunny and nice. Massive 3 pets for Sutton this. Got picked up by Mum and Joseph and got back at about 17:30 and watched the Wolves v Norwich game on Sky in which Norwich won 2-1.
