I'm off to Rustington v Rottingdean Village in the Southern Combination D2 Supplementary Shield on Saturday.
I'm not quite sure why, I think the location appealed to me because of reference to the village in 'The Gnu' by Flanders & Swann. This contrasts nicely with the fact that the club's shirt sponsors are Royal Blood, a rather different duo - though I like both acts.
I've also realised during the various lockdowns that I just like visiting seaside towns/clubs (a side effect of growing up in one, I suppose) and actually enjoy the drive to the south coast from the London/Surrey border - even though I'm not very car-orientated. I think I just like the sense of escape and change of scenery.
