SOME ARE LETTING THE TRAIN TAKE THE STRAIN.

Are you going to Salter Road? If you are, there's a contingent of Crows taking the train from Crowborough at 11:45am.

Your support is needed NOW.
For our Easter Monday fixture away at Fisher FC a group of supporters and Executive Committee members have decided to let the train do the work for them and take to the tracks to see if we can get the points on offer.
Therefore, if you want to join them, they are catching the 11:45am train from Crowborough Station and the more Crows that make the journey, either by train or by car, the more the merrier is the maxim we should use.
With Fisher FC no longer playing their matches at Dulwich Hamlet FC, which is a relief I must say as travelling there was a nightmare, especially on a Monday evening, it will be a new ground for us all to visit no matter how we get there. I'm personally not sure of what facilities they have there, it's a new ground after all but if you Google the address, the picture that comes up does make it look pretty sparse.
The surface for the players is a 3G one so that should make for a good game if both teams want to play football and with both teams needing the points for differing reasons, it could be an end to end affair and the team that comes out on top will probably the one that takes those chances the best.
The address of their new ground is St. Paul's Sports Ground, Salter Road, Rotherhithe, London SE16 5EF and is about 100 yards from their old ground in Surrey Docks if you have happened to visit them when they were there.
I have taken the following details from their website when it comes to getting there and hopefully, they'll prove useful to you all; "The stadium is roughly 10 minutes walk from Rotherhithe Station on the London Overground, and 15 minutes walk from Canada Water Station for the Jubilee Line. The 381 and C10 buses both stop adjacent to the stadium. Nelson Dock Pier is 15 minutes walk away, served by River Bus 4 from Canary Wharf."
I have also seen somewhere that car parking at the ground is limited although some street parking is available.
There's no doubt that a massive turnout of Crows at the game will encourage and help the players, so no matter how you get there, your support is needed and will be much appreciated.
