Rooks supporters watch and discuss the 0-0 draw against Wingate and Finchley at The Dripping Pan. Lewes FC is very much a family club - evidenced by the baby in the photograph - where children enter free of charge (also Wingate & Finchley's policy). The beer in the glasses looks to be the local brew, Harvey's Sussex Old Ale - available from the bar and very nice. The food facilities provided the usual chips, burgers, etc that fans expect but there were also homemade goodies such as some large and excellent Scotch Eggs. The fans at the match were a knowledgeable bunch, applauding good play by both sides. This is non-league football at its best and I'd recommend a visit to The Dripping Pan to experience and enjoy the atmosphere. Info about Lewes FC available at http://lewesfc.com/home .
