An ambulance was called and treatment was given to James for 20+ minutes. Up until then the game had been very evenly balanced with the best chance falling to Horsham whose close range shot was somehow deflected over the bar by Doug Saunders from practically on his own goal line; yet Pottage had had more attempts on goal. In the short period of the game there were some performances of note. More importantly though, from all at PPVFC our thoughts are with James and we wish him a speedy recovery. 3rd August -  Pottage continue their good form with two wins in another Saturday double header A first goal for big defender Paul Minter (pictured) and another from Jason Chandler saw a slightly under strengthened Pottage XI beat a mixed Lancing XI 2-1,  and the later game saw Pottage beat Brighton Premier outfit O&G Utd 2-1 also. 1st match report 2nd match report   1st August - Pottage pip East Grinstead with late comeback Two late goals from Brad Curtis, which completed his hat-trick, saw another mixed Pottage squad come from 2-1 down to pip East Grinstead 3-2 in the final few minutes of a close encounter.
