Ground:
Jockey Farm is the home of Rusthall FC - A lovely rural setting in the Kent Countryside ,a few miles outside of Tunbridge Wells.A quirky main stand which you must drive through ! in order to get to the car park - never seen that before.Backs on to a local farm , very peaceful environment. Rusthall itself is a charming village which still relies on its independant retailers 6/10


Where Linda took me !
I knew something was wrong !

Match Enjoyment: The runners and riders at Jockey Farm , where the going was officially soft (heavy in places !).gave their all in this energetic long distance race . It ended in a dead-heat and photo finnish Bridon Ropes nearly tied themselves in a knot with some dodgy defending and nearly hung themselves.Rusthall nearly fell at the first fence when Bridon hit the inside of the post. But all in all neither of them showed any pedigree or stamina and they both weakend in the final furlong (last ten minutes) and neither of them could pass the winning post.
Both teams gave it their best crack of the whip. 5/10
This was my first 0-0 since November 2010 - Burscough v Colwyn Bay. My day started at the A* Cafe , but skill wise ,this match was more like a C-minus !


sliding tackle !
lovely rural location
