JANUARY FIXTURES – COME AND GET BEHIND THE WHITES

Check out our remaining fixtures for January

The Whites will be looking at upsetting promotion chasing Havant in our next match at Crabble before heading off to Tonbridge to face the Angels the following Tuesday, looking to reverse the defeat at home earlier on in the campaign. We then find ourselves on the road again as we head north to Hemel Hempstead to see if we can do the double over the Tudors before finishing the month with a tie against Worthing at Crabble.

We hope to see as many of you as we can both home and away to cheer on the boys in the second half of the season. As usual it is pay on the gate (card is accepted).
