In the end we made it in plenty of time for this one, arriving thirteen minutes before kick off and it kicked off three minutes late on top of that! Although it is a 3G Pitch, the surroundings look old, so it was probably a grass pitch originally.

The match was 12th versus 2nd in the league table. It wasn’t high on skill, which is what you’d expect at this level, but both teams had a go and there were plenty of chances at both ends. Wezembeek were in control, having gone ahead midway through the first half, but Haren levelled a minute before the break, when their winger cut inside and finished with a shot into the far corner. Wezembeek edged back in front early in the second half and deservedly added two more goals to run out comfortable 1-4 winners.

We were booked on the 21.36 Eurotunnel, which was the earliest available at the time of booking, due to planned engineering works. We knew we weren’t going to make it on time for check in due to watching the extra match, but rather than reschedule, we just took a chance and hoped for the best. We ended up being given the 2250, which wasn’t too bad, but made it onto the 22.42. This left seven minutes late, so we didn’t gain much, but it could have been worse. The M20 was once again closed between Junction 9 and 7 as we headed home and added to the fact that most of the M20 is restricted to a 50 mph limit from Ashford to the M26, then it meant arrival home was five minutes before midnight.
