WATCH: Dodds suspended as GFC head into key home

Friday 19 January 2024


Guernsey FC go into a tough game against Thatcham without the suspended Tom Dodds.

Dodds picked up a questionable red card in their 4-2 loss to Badshot Lea, but it has not been overturned and he is out for the next three games.

Watch: Was it a red? Tom Dodd's challenge which has led to a three game suspension. 

Thatcham sit 10th in the Isthmian South Central Division, but did not play last week after their clash with Southall was postponed because of flooding. 

But they have shown good form so far this year, with a 4-1 win against Uxbridge and a 5-1 win away at Ascot. 

They announced that on-loan striker Christian Johnson left this week. The Maidenhead United player has now signed a one month loan deal with Uxbridge. 

In October, Thatcham beat the Green Lions 4-1. 

Tomorrow’s (Saturday 20 January) game kicks off at 2pm at Footes Lane. 

On Wednesday, GFC will welcome Raynes Park Vale back for their postponed league clash. 

The scheduled game was called off in controversial circumstances after a late pitch inspection when Raynes Park had already travelled, and their players headed to The Doghouse pub. 

The club later apologised to anyone who was upset by the boisterous nature of their players on the return flight. 

“Raynes Park Vale FC will be travelling in the usual manner and we look forward to the game vs Guernsey FC,” said Director Director Bill Pollard. 

“We note that Guernsey FC has had some good results recently including a win over Sutton Common Rovers and an away draw against a very solid South Park squad.   

“This should be a competitive and enjoyable game for the fans to watch and we look forward to playing our part in an entertaining encounter.”
