for all the things that we have all achieved from such humble beginnings....

 

whatever happens after tonight we have achieved the almost impossible that probably will never be achieved again....div 3 to the top of nationwide south in less than 3 years...

 

a twentyfold increase in attendances and a club and family atmosphere that are probably the envy of most....

 

yes we have invested in the club and in my opinion most wisely given the income streams from restaurants... bars and functions...

 

but hey....football is what it's all about and as I sit here typing brimming with pride and thinking of everyone that has done their bit....

 

it makes every penny and every hour of backbreaking work so worthwhile...

 

thank you..... all of you...past and present.......whatever happens this season....and we've won fck all yet.....

 

tonight makes it all worthwhile.... <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

As I keep (boringly) stating, been involved with this club for many a year and am suitable proud of the progress that has been made. I sat at Redbridge tonight and could only cringe as I saw ball after ball expedited out of the ground. Brought back painful memories, if that happened a few years ago at home the game ground to halt until we had retrieved the others from the river or a back garden. Not too professional!!

Yes, although there is pretty much the whole season yet to go, yesterdays victory was a massive achievement.

Sitting top of the league represents and underlines the outstanding progress made over the last few years.

I think this takes the pressure off the players a little. They have done the initial hard work, now lets keep it up!

 

Well done to all.

wa-hey!!!

 

bit of luck, it'll be division 3 to (the old) division 3 in 5 years.

 

the performances over the last few games & the fluency of the football convince me that we have the quality of a league club.

Good call Unc, from my point of view very proud of the squad and the fans who were magnificent.

The youngsters even singing in the stand, great stuff.

Games are going to be tight in the evenings and Winter afternoons under the lights so we have to be strong, win all the tackles and then let our skills shine through.

We now keep our feet well and truly on the floor and take each game as it comes.

And a special "Thanks for your support" to all the fans of this magnificent football club.

I was there last night willing HX onto victory and to top of the table.

I can remember HX FC many years ago being just a tiny club in Havering and in the shadow of many of the other local clubs and it's strange now to see them with potentially the chance of becoming the biggest.

ps

Was great to see so many Chins there too and meeting for the first time Urchinboys and Not the Real Steve West.
