1st XI thrashed by Forest on opening day

13 Sep 2014

The OHAFC 1st XI were thrashed 8-1 by Forest on the opening day of the 2014/15 season, a sobering experience that left none of the Harrow squad present in any doubt about the standards required to compete in the Arthurian League Premier Division.

Forest were considerably fitter, stronger and better-organised and were 5-1 up at half-time, Alex Gilbert scoring Harrow's only goal.

The second half proved little better for the dark blues who now have three weeks to regroup before their next game, another fixture against a strong team, Lancing.

A full match report plus team lineup is now available in the results section.
