What's the pitch looking like after all this heavy rain in the last 12-15 hours? Any standing water?

Joking aside let's hope the match is on.

Only other game tonight of interest to us is Fleet v Egham. Could even be an indicator as what to expect on Saturday.

Potters bar v Chalfont is postponed.

Potters bar v Chalfont is postponed.

Fleet v Egham is off - they tweeted "Early inspection to see if any chance today, pitch like a lake bottom half and ref has called it off " - which suggests we might need some dry weather before Saturday.

That's good news that Egham game is off, means there fixture list will backlog. Let's win tonight to stretch are lead.

Emphatic 6-1 victory that never looked likely after going 1 down. Arlesey did tire during the game after coming out like a speed train. Some excellent performances from the front players, Hoban superb in the first and even better from hall in the second. Helped our goal difference that bit more tonight also

Andy hall just IMMENSE!! I don't think I have seen a player in an AFCrd shirt play as good as that in 45mins , the second half performance from him was world .

Top of the league by 6 points! We've Been In this situation before and yes I would rather have the points on the board tbh than have the games in hand like Egham. Egham will be thinking now that if they slip up it could be over, now that's pressure.


Great work from the grounds staff the pitch looks great considering the amount of rain we've had .

[sussexdiamond]

We are now top goalscorers (69) and have best GD +34 and 6 points clear. Royston with 4 games in hand can overtake us, but they will have to put in some super performances to do so.

Big week coming up v St Ives and Kings Langley, but first lets beat Fleet on Saturday.
