Went by myself and left home at about 12:30 and walked to Streatham Common station. I then got the train to Clapham Junction and then got the train to Farnborough. I got to Farnborough at about 14:10 and then walked to the ground getting there at about 14:30. The ground itself is one of football league standard and is definitely the best one structure and facilities wise that I have been to. The game itself was one of two halves with the 1st being a very entertaining affair with Beaconsfield taking the lead after about 15 mins through a lovely strike from the edge of the area from their striker who was 40 odd years old. Farnborough had chances even before Beaconsfield took the lead but managed to equalise about 10 mins after from a corner. Farnborough then had numerous chances to take the lead before they eventually did 5 mins after equalising through a penalty. Then they added a 3rd 5 mins after that through a lovely volley at the back post from a corner and could easily have been further ahead before the HT whistle. The 2nd half wasn't as entertaining as the first and Farnborough added their 4th and final goal after about 55 mins which killed the game off. Beaconsfield had most of the ball after that but were poor in the final third and didn't do enough to create any chances. I then walked back to the station and then got the train home changing at Woking and Clapham Junction getting back to Streatham Common and getting home at about 19:00.
