FT Table. Tight in the middle #corsetis #COYR @isthmianleague.bsky.social @lewesfcsupporters.club

FT. 1-0 Rooks. Great first half. Tense second. Good three points. Friendliest away keeper of the season.

Seven added on

West shot well saved. Franzen-Jones bangs post with rebound. Gah.

Canvey piling on pressure. We just scramble one clear for corner.

Franzen-Jones on for Bennett

Canvey FK. Louis collects and gets a kick in the head for his trouble. Yellow card for the miscreant.

It's a much tighter second half. We need that second goal. Don't like it.

Muirhead on for Christian-Law

Christian-Law booked for cumulative naughtiness

Bennett cross finds Charlie a yard or two out. Poked wide but offside anyway.

West on for Bassett at HT

Second half is brewing. Floodlight are on (NB Whitehawk).

HT. 1-0. Probably should have had a couple more.

Soft booking for Canvey 2 for a nothing foul on Bassett, who limps on

Canvey 6 booked for shoving Louis as he was kicking ball away.

Canvey 4 booked for taking Bennett out.

Almost a second. Great run from Unwin, cross finds Walker. He bangs it just over and I play it back on to the pitch with my left foot. Here if you need me, Pitts.

GOOOAALLL. It's been coming. Unwin cross eventually drops to Allen who bangs it home. 1-0.

Bassett with a great chance. Slaps it straight at keeper and then it looks like his thigh has gone.

Charlie Walker does brilliantly to keep ball in and smashes into barrier. Shot just over.

Rooks still well on top. Bassett down holding his thigh.

Bassett with a swipe from edge of box. Just an inch wide of post.

Christian-Law with a half chance. Tries to tap it in at near post. Keeper smothers. Canvey lads diving around like Tom Daley when he's put the knitting down.

Huge chance. Bobby Unwin races through one on one. Hits joint of post and bar.

Game is go. Pitch is gooey.

It was colder than a polar bear's peculiars at Burgess Hill yesterday, and the result didn't warm any cockles either. Match report from a sub-zero Sussex derby: lewesfcsupporters.club/burgess-hill...

FT. 2-1 Hill. Poor second half. Got what we deserved.

Five added

Unwin off for Bennett.

Franzen-Jones on for Walker. Five left.

2-1 Burgess Hill. Corner drops in six yard box and they sweep it home. It was a highly debatable corner in first place. Defence not happy.

Bassett off for Hamouchene

Subs. Christian-Law on for Alfie, and Taylor-Crossdale for (I think) Watson. 1,148 in the ground.

Burgess Hill on top at mo. Couple of good blocks keep the scores level.

Pope is knackered. Puff of white smoke goes up as the sub is announced.

Pope booked for an unholy challenge.

Hill with a big early chance. Free header in the area. Over.

Second half is cooking. Can't see any Rooks changes. Teeth are chattering in the away end.

HT. 1-1. Probably a fair reflection of even first half.

Allen booked harshly. Caught player late but was blind sided.

Massive let off. Good save from Louis and Hill miss the rebound from about a yard out. HT beckoning.

Good save from Rogers from a Hill FK.

GOOOAALLL. Smasher. Charlie Walker cracks one from 20 yards. 1-1.

Walker with a decent break away but gets trapped in indecision and eventually cleared for a corner.

Bassett chips one over defender and Unwin is one on one with keeper. Brave save by the Hill stopper.

1-0 Burgess Hill. Move down the right and Ben Pope taps it home.

Bernal strike from range. A yard wide. Almost takes out two kids walking behind goal.
