Re: Also at Hartlepool..

I think we can count Brian as a Hampton legend can't we? A very decent player, and didn't he indirectly help us with going up from the Isthmian div 2 by scoring a goal for Egham in their home game against Banstead (our promotion rivals that season) which meant Egham won, allowing us to sneak a promo...

Hmmm. Could have been a lot worse but there'll be no room for complacency...

Re: Braintree away

Well we looked a bit better in the second half, the subs definitely made some difference but that has to be put down as a game to forget.

Re: Braintree away

Watching via the livestream. Poor performance from us in the first half and Braintree are a very ordinary side indeed. Considerable improvement needed if we're going to make a comeback in this game.

Yes, well done Dick, what an incredible lifetime of service. As has been said, one of the nice guys too.

Re: 12 Months on.

The concern for me is the mention of EFL, championship, premiership and champions league!! ....it is delusional. EFL at absolute stretch because the likes of Sutton and Harrogate and Salford have achieved it but that would take a near miracle and a new stadium being built to make it happen. My conc...

Re: Half Time

Good write ups and many valid points raised. I can see us making the playoffs at the end of the season but before then it'll be interesting to see how we react if/when we lose a league game. Plus, I do think we need a bit more competition up front, or someone to step in if Seymour gets injured. Mel ...

Re: Weston here on Saturday.

Couldn't be there again today, still recuperating, but 2-1 against Weston sounds like a very good result. What a brilliant run this is, full credit deserved by management and players.

Good co-commentary from Kenneth Williams.
