You don’t need a sense of déjà vu to envisage Horsham letting in early goals – it’s become something of a standing order. However you would have needed a crystal ball in Earlsfield to see them coming back to steal a point having been three goals down within 15 minutes.

On the surface the point came courtesy of a stunning Woolley hat-trick. More importantly it was a tremendous performance from a squad that now believe they are the equal of anybody in the league.
