A really big game - at both ends of the table.
The draw with Sittingbourne on Monday means we are only second on goals scored, ahead of Folkestone - talk about tight!
Anyhow, that means we are in a strange situation.
The race for the runners-up spot is in both our's and Folkestone's hands (we could go out and we 3-0, but if they win 8-0, they will overtake us on goals scored anyway)!
Personally, I find it a shame Horsham are down the bottom of the league because they are a big club and a nice vocal group of supporters.
They are bottom of the league, although, 9th on the attendance figures, which tells you about all you need to know about how much of a mess they have been at times this season!
Being eight points off from safety with only three games to play, realistically, they will be relegated (barring a miracle).
However we have seen with the likes of Walton Casuals a few seasons ago that it isn't completely unheard of for a side to get a reprieve.
So, with the likes of Redhill and Ramsgate in sight, I'm sure they will be keen to still finish as high as they can.
Oh and they also have a new manager.
He was in charge at Hastings earlier this season, and according to their Forum, was in charge when Hastings surprisingly beat us 5-1!
Though, there is another record doing the rounds on the Horsham Forum that they supposedly haven't won in Kent all season.
Let's hope that is the record that is maintained on Saturday.
FAV Army!
