How Horsham must be grateful for the £200,000 they generated from this season's FA Cup run as problems pile up over their impending move from Queen Street.

They are not going to move into their new ground at Holbrook until the start of 2009-10 at the earliest, although that looks a bit optimistic as plans for the 3,000-seat stadium have still be to be lodged with the local council.

Persimmon Homes are paying Horsham £4.75m for Queen Street where they plan to build 82 homes.

But that will only be paid once the development is complete and, having had one planning application refused, Persimmon are still working on a new one so it will be a while before someone's kitchen is where the goalmouth once was.

In the meantime, Persimmon have loaned Horsham £2.4m to help develop Holbrook but the club are incurring hefty interest payments on that sum until their new ground is built.

And on top of all that, Hornets still do not know where they will be playing their football next season.

Crawley Town, worried about the effect having another 30-odd games on their pitch, last week told Horsham to look elsewhere.

And the search must be concluded by the end of the month or Horsham could face sanction from the Ryman League.

The club have refused to say where they might end up but clubs like Molesey and Tooting and Mitcham have been mentioned.

Horsham have been well supported for a number of years now with regular gates of more than 500. But how many of them are going to make the trip to south London for home matches, especially new fans attracted to the club this season by their FA Cup success?

So as well as interest payments on their loans, they are going to lose gate revenue and have to pay rent to their landlords.

There is an obvious solution of course, and hopefully there is enough good will to make it happen.

Less than a goalkick from Queen Street, Horsham YMCA have a ground which is perfectly capable of hosting the crowds Horsham get. It might not reach Ryman League premier division standards, but there are almost as many seats in the main stand as there are at Queen Street and plenty of standing room.

Horsham YMCA would have to agree, of course, and the Ryman League would have to show some flexibility over what they deem acceptable facilities for premier division matches.

But the least Horsham deserve, after all the publicity their FA Cup run generated, is some help from the League. New ground or not, it would be hard for Horsham to win back the lost fans if they ended up playing in Tooting for a couple of years as well as maintaining the momentum and goodwill their magnificent cup run has generated.

Should Horsham groundshare with Horsham YMCA next season?
