- 25' Eastbourne Borough FC is showing some good football. However, Eastbourne Borough FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 52' A meaty challenge results in booking for Chris Whelpdale on 52.
- 57' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
