From 25 yards the freekick whipped into the unprotected area of the net, the wall and goalkeeper helpless.  Noodles had pulled Buxted back to 2 - 1, with one of his spectaculars!  With about 20 minutes left the away team searched for an unlikely equaliser.  Chances were made but not put away and a mighty relieved Roffey eventually left the pitch as winners. 

Once again the seconds had responded positively to very late withdrawals and calls on the squad, leaving the bare eleven to make the long journey to Horsham.  The formation had to be changed, players pulled in from the thirds and others put into unlikely positions - and there would be no touchline encouragement because of assistant referee duties.  The team gelled, several chances were made against the meanest defence (only seven goals against in all competitions) and Andy Harper, Lee Turner and Chris Scott all rose to the occasion with the second team regulars.

 

Roffeys fast striker ran from just onside to score their first and in the second half Andy Harper, who had made many fine saves was beaten to the ball for the home sides second.  Every player gave 100%, man of the match goes to Andy harper.
