Re: Slough (a)

Good win. Started well for the first 20 mins or so but didn't quite do enough to really capitalise. Second half we produced a few more chances although Slough were always looking pretty good on the breaks they carved out. In the end though we had just that bit more quality than they showed. Never an ...

Re: Slough (a)

I think we should be going there to try and win...most other clubs below us have games in hand and it'd be easy to slip back down the table if we aren't careful. Bath v Farnborough is a game to keep an eye on, and I can see Eastbourne getting a "new manager bounce" even if their notoriously ...

Well he must have something to have carved out a career in the National League but I'm not sure we ever saw much of it.

Haha, good luck with that one...they'll need it. They're in for a very expensive ride.

Re: Dover Athletic

I'm sure there will be loads of changes this summer. This manager, as do most others nowadays it seems, tend to favour a high turnover of players. It's just the way the modern non-league game has become. I don't particularly like it, especially the constant incomings and outgoings of the loan system ...

Yes, me too. Great tall skinny lad. Don't remember his actual contribution to the game but you couldn't miss him!

That has to go down as our least successful signing in history doesn't it? There have been plenty who failed to deliver on the pitch but to hardly even get that far and still be here is something else.

Re: News of former players



Adam Desbois has left Slough following a seven-day approach by a National League club.


Pity we didn't get him back.


Wouldn't really have been a lot of point...he'd clearly have been off as soon as he got a "better" offer. Slough were prepared to have a punt on signing him despite his ...

Re: Enfield Town (A)


Despite the upbeat messaging pre game, we don’t seem to be showing the sort of performances needed to get out of the danger zone. This squad should be doing a lot better. Are we relying on other teams being worse than us?


Sadly, whether by design or not, I think that's exactly what we're doing ...

Re: Eastbourne (h) - 28/02/26

Couldn't be there today but losing 2-1 in a game like this, however we actually played, is a shocking result. Why isn't Kiernan starting? We're just not the same side without him.

Re: Eastbourne (h) - 28/02/26

Anything other than a win for us is a bit of a disaster really, but some of the other fixtures are hugely significant too...Enfield v Bath, Ebsfleet v Farnborough, we need to keep an eye on those. Salisbury losing to Maidstone would come in handy as well.

Re: Tonbridge (a) - 24/02/26

Just seen those "highlights"...dear oh dear. On the other hand, I can't see why Silva's goal was disallowed.
