and live on Freeview channel 276
The 4-0 loss at Oaklands Park was a setback to a side who have been in decent form in the Isthmian south east division in recent weeks, but joint boss Alex Walsh said they would’nt get too down about it.
They have another big test this Saturday when they host play-off-chasing Ashford.

Hide AdWalsh said: “We know as a group that the performance at Chichester was poor and with all the travelling away support we feel bitterly disappointed we couldn’t put on a show for them.
"Credit to Chichester, who were very good on the day. We won’t get too low on the result as we must bounce back at home to Ashford. We will learn from our mistakes and improve.
“I think the players will be fine – and they are experienced enough to realise we need a reaction.
"As I have said before they are a fantastic group and will approach the next game with full focus on achieving three points.

Hide Ad"Ashford again have been knocking on the door of the play-off spots all season. We know where their strengths are but also where we can hurt too.
"We look forward to the challenge and want to keep the good home form continuing.”
Heath are 13th, three places above Burgess Hill Town, who let slip a 4-1 lead to draw 4-4 with Lancing.
