We saw the reason why we love football so much at the Silverlake Stadium on Saturday.

We watch 40+ minutes of horror, as our team - Eastleigh - is a goal behind and nothing is working. We are being overrun by a better side and wondering why we pay money to watch this stuff.

Then Tyrese Shade, out of nothing, does something magical and it is 1-1.  Already signed up for next season.

The other memorable thing on Saturday was the stadium announcer saying at the start ‘Let’s hear it for the boys in blue!’. Both sides played in blue.

Sincerely,

Phil Hand
