First
pub on our way to the ground was The Weald
|
McCarthy
settles down with a pint of Strongbow
|
|
|
|
|
Jones
was attending his second ever Crocs on Tour
outing
|
And
was soon getting into the spirit at the dart
board, in our second pub, The Cricketers
|
|
|
|
|
Pub
number three was The Kings Head, and McCarthy
was looking incredibly red after a day at the
cricket
|
Which
also explained why Potter was wearing this incredibly-gay-when-not-at-cricket
hat
|
|
|
|
|
A
game of billiards was naturally on the agenda
|
Potter
and Jones can hardly contain their attendance
as we near the ground
|
|
|
|
|
Dan
Collin was soon joining the party at Leylands
Park
|
This
cheery Burgess Hill resident makes his way through
the turnstile
|
|
|
|
|
Witham
and Collin are plainly looking forward to the
first game attended this season
|
Burgess
Hill go forward
|
|
|
|
|
This
stand was merely a path
|
As
was the opposite end behind the goal
|
|
|
|
|
The
smart seated stand was full to capacity
|
Collin,
Witham and Potter look happy to be at such an
illustrious club
|
|
|
|
|
Jones
and McCarthy enjoy another pint
|
Gary
Hart was back in a Brighton shirt, despite being
released by former boss Dean Wilkins at the
end of last season
|
|
|
|
|
Witham
looks engrossed in the game
|
Jake
Robinson prepares to whip a corner in
|
|
|
|
|
Which
naturally ends in disapointment
|
Collin
looking very menacing, possibly due to watching
too much Football Factory
|
|
|
|
|
Potter
looking extremely homosexual
|
Strikers
Joe Gatting and Glen Murray trot off at half
time
|
|
|
|
|
Doug
Loft was looking as fine as ever, and doing
a job in the unusual position of left back
|
John
Sullivan makes his way off at the end of the
half
|
|
|
|
|
This
happy Burgess Hill fan bought McCarthy and Jones
a drink to the large queue at the bar
|
Tommy
Elphick shows what a model pro he is, standing
by the food kiosk but not purchasing anything
|
|
|
|
|
Michel
Kuipers is happy to pose with McCarthy
|
Jones
is soon in a world of drinking trouble, being
double parked
|
|
|
|
|
Adam
Virgo was back at the heart of the defence following
his free transfer from Celtic, the club which
bought him from the Albion for £1.5m only two
years ago. "Mugging" doesn't do it justice
|
Colin
Hawkins was also on show following his move
from Coventry
|
|
|
|
|
New
boss Micky Adams watches on from the dugout
|
Joe
Gatting sits on the bench after an hours run
out
|
|
|
|
|
Jones
laughs after McCarthy dropped his pint, which
was ironic bearing in mind he would go onto
do the same thing mere minutes later
|
Witham
seems to be enjoying his day out in such an
illustrious town
|
|
|
|
|
Jones
takes a piss behind the stand
|
Goalkeeper
coach Paul Crichton was thrown into the action,
much to the delight of the crowd
|
|
|
|
|
Burgess
Hill manager Jamie Howell had obviously been
taking fashion advice from Mark McGhee, and
looked stunning in his white shirt, no tie,
black trousers combo
|
Tommy
Fraser leaves the field at the end of play
|
|
|
|
|
Adam
Virgo has his photo taken with McCarthy
|
And
it was finally the turn of Micky Adams to have
his photo taken, although worryingly he looks
more drunk than McCarthy
|
