Comments :

Went for a bit of groundhopping and to see Sutton for the first time of the season. Left home at about 11:45 and walked to Streatham Common before getting the train to East Croydon and changing for a train down to Havant. Arrived at the station at about 14:20 and walked to the ground taking about 20 mins to get there arriving at about 14:40. The game itself was quite a good one with both sides playing some good football. Havant took the lead after about 30 mins through a flicked header by Prior from a corner and they went in at HT 1-0 up. We came out the second half and looked sharper than the first and managed to equalise after a couple of mins of the 2nd half through Thomas' towering header at the back post. We then took the lead on the hour mark through a penalty by Beautyman and with the entire side changing for the last 30 mins we saw out the game and won 2-1. Walked back to the station, getting the train at 17:30 and got back to Streatham Common at 19:25 and got home just after 19:30.
