Took advantage of a blank Saturday and popped over to Halifax to see Eastleigh, the town I was born in play, and tick off a new ground, albeit non league.
Found an awesome Real Pub, The Victorian Beer Cafe,with 8 Cask Beers. !st one I had was Tripple F Brewery Bitter from Alton!
10 min stagger to ground, away section was not exactly rammed with officially 36 away fans.
Of those, were us 3 Northern Saints (only me from Eastleigh) and 6 absolutely pissed up Huddersfield Fans who hate Halifax, and embraced all things Eastleigh, plus a few Eastleigh Lads, we were singing nonstop and 2 limbs, sore shins moments in 1st half with Eastleigh cruising 2 nil.
2nd half different story and from what I gather from some real Eastleigh Fans no big surprise, Super Kelvin Davis went all negative and inevitably conceded 2 late goals, so the 2-2 draw felt like a defeat!
Brilliant day out, big thanks to the Huddersfield Lads for the entertainment too.
There was way more excitement than what I saw on Itv on Sunday thats for sure.
I thought I was going to finally going to see a Win at my 16th attempt since Wembley Play offs (14 Saints defeats and 1 U21 Play off final at Man City) but at least it ended a run of 15 straight defeats  |  | | |  |

Great club Eastleigh. I've watched many of their home games when Saints aren't playing, and really enjoy going to the Silverlake. I thought Eastleigh would be doing better than they are, having seen them against Saints, but losing their main striker hasn't helped. Many of these non league sides, have such loyal support, some of them ex league clubs like Southend etc and enjoy chatting to decent loyal fans supporting their local club come what may.
Never been to any away games of theirs. Quite interested in stadiums and non league grounds, so would love to visit some of these grounds, if I wasn't so busy spending my money on Saints 😂 | |
