Harriers Chatter

Road to glory or a slippy banana skin?

A defeat against them would be even worse than the Stourbridge debacles of recent seasons, oh, and Alvechurch. Am going along but does anyone know what the parking's like at/near the ground and even more important what's the pub situation? Recommendations?

I went last season to see their smaller neighbours Dudley Town who groundshare there. The attendance was 95 and the car park was full an hour before kick off. We parked on Belinda Close about 5 mins walk away on a path past an industrial estate.

Don't forget the disaster that was Stafford Rangers both home (0-0) and away (3-0). How they laughed

Khalsa is connected to the 442 bar and grill which do matchday offers. It’s about 15 minutes bus ride from Wolverhampton bus station so plenty of drinking on offer there. Usually you can drink in the ground anyway, in the league that is.

Be mindful their usual attendance is around 150-200 so it’s gonna be far busier than normal

So how many Harriers supporters will be going along? 150 - 200?

I would guess a few more than that. How many do we usually take to Stourbridge?

Does this game count as one of Carrington’s 3 match suspension? If not, is he likely to be selected?

Yes I believe so, and therefore no

Quality told in the end, massive relief to get through. Job done, hopefully another good draw on Monday

A nice trip out. I liked Sporting Khalsa as a club. Good samosas at half time too.

Harriers seemed to struggle with the pitch first half. I had a brief chat with Nyall Bell and Jaiden White as they were warming up and asked them about the pitch and they looked a bit sceptical of it: slow with maybe too much crumb. 'You meed to give the ball a bit more punch to get it going'.

Nice to see Bell get a couple. I was right behind the second and he did well to pass it into the narrow gap at the keeper's left. Neat and precise finish.

Enjoyable day. Great setup at Sporting Khalsa, put some in our league to shame

We got the job done and were the better side, but they did cause issues at times. We had plenty of chances and we’ll rue such wastefulness against better sides.
