Steve Gallen’s U18’s side won 1-0 last night at Tooting & Mitcham United. Marcel Henry-Francis scored our goal after 86 minutes. Rangers had previously come close on 70 minutes when Frankie Sutherland’s free kick hit the crossbar. There were around 250 people watching the game at Tooting’s very nice, modern ground. Apparently AFC Wimbledon have had their eyes on it but Tooting are not interested in selling. Tooting & Mitcham moved to Imperial Fields, in Morden, in 2002. Three generations of the Francis family were present with Adam Francis playing No.10 and Roy and Gerry watching from the Stands.

I love Gerry almost as much as my cat. Wouldn’t it be great if Adam made it? Gerry should be honorary president. Would have gone to Crawley this evening but I’m inexplicably ill. Love to all.
