Tickets are still available for this match from the link above. This may be a chance for many of us to see a lot of the Under 23 squad in the flesh for the first time.
There may even be a contingent of first team players getting a run out following the Gillingham postponement.
Either way it should be a good night, there have always been strong links between the two clubs, our 1995-96 Football Combination Championship winning side played their home fixtures at Earlsmead
Among the players to have played for both sides are Albert Adomah, Ian Stewart and Gavin Maguire. Micky Tomkys arguably the most successful managers in the history of Harrow Borough played for Rangers between 1951 and 1959.
Our last visit to Earlsmead was almost ten years ago to the day - a 1-0 win on 15/7/2011

Albert started and played first 15 mins. No Kane or any other 1st team squad. 2-0 to us at HT: both good goals and scored by Sean Adarkwa and Charlie Kendall.
Great to be able to watch live football again, with a pint (albeit Fosters) on the terraces 😊

Didn’t hear the teams being read out but a few observations from the game.
Nice to see Adomah have a sentimental 15 mins against his old team, came out to a guard of honour. Rangers left side looked a handful, didn’t catch either of their names but left back and left side midfielder caused problems. Mema in midfield used the ball well.
Adarkwa took both his goals well, Kendall also took a very smart finish after coming on for Adomah. Drewe goal off the back of a bad mistake.
Sinclair Armstrong came on during a whole raft of second half subs and looks an absolute menace. Booked for diving almost immediately but pace and power aplenty. Would have scored a great goal had it not been for an excellent goal line clearance from the Harrow Borough 15, who was also one of the most bizarrely shaped footballers I’ve ever seen!

Thought Sinclair Armstrong looked very very good pace strong as an ox very ray Jones like to be honest , Thought our number 11 looked very handy as well no idea on his name but decent with and without the ball
Agreed about their number 15... Although he played ok and made amends for his mistake for our 3rd(?) goal, with a goal line clearance from the impressive Armstrong.
I also liked the look of our diminutive midfielder number 23 who came on second half. If nothing else his shoulders sloped like a footballer.
Best of our lot for me was Joe Gubbins. Tall, assured, composed with the ball in defence and going forward. Loves his Mum. Even stood over a freekick at one stage although Charlie Kendal ended up taking it. A good strike that was deflected over into the car park at the back of the school end. The ball then eagerly retrieved by a little R's fan who'd scampered after it. Thank heavens as I think that all the other spare balls had been lost to the gardens of South Harrow, surrounding the ground.
A good performance all round and well deserved win.
Number 11 was the best player on the pitch first half. 2 assists, real talent on the ball. Has been let go by Reading and is on trial. Reminded me of Michael Olise in looks and style, his name is Joseph Ajose.
Sean Adarkwa is a proper unit the new lad signed after being released from West Ham. Looks an upgrade on Mampala who has been let go, not surprised by that based on what I saw last season.
Joe Gubbins is quality on the ball and steps out with real composure and begins many attacks. Needs to be tested more definitely though.
Raheem Conte and Armelindo Mema both look good attacking CM talents. Agree with the comments above about Armstrong, he’s definitely got something. Charley Kendall played right mid (not up top in his usual role) and also looked a good player, great finish also.
Overall, a well deserved 4-0 win (Adarkwa x 2, Kendall, Drewe)
