This was my third and probably final visit to Harlington Sports Ground. I had previously seen Chelsea U18 play here (21.9.2002) on a pitch in the far left hand corner of the ground when looking from the entrance, before returning on 25th October 2017, when I saw Imperial College play on the 3G Pitch, which is to the right of the clubhouse, adjacent to the entrance. Today’s pitch is to the left of the entrance and runs lengthways in front of the clubhouse.

Forest were really poor in the first half and deservedly trailed 2-0 at the break. They then scored three times in a seven minute spell around the hour mark, but Rangers levelled it up at 3-3 with the goal of the game from the corner of the 18 yard box.

Having to be discreet, along with the fact that spectators are limited to one side of the pitch, made taking photos awkward, but I did manage to get a few snaps…….
