Hi there - thought I'd join an introduce myself. I first started watching the Stones as a kid up at Watling Street, from 1990-92. Great memories of players like Butler, Gall, Lillis, Breen, Barton, Beeney & Osbourne After a few years of occasional attendance I'm now back with a season ticket along with my 5 year old. Looking forward to the season ahead! ps - it's not much of a Stones claim to fame but I'm just left of centre in the picture below (green/blue track suit top). Shame it's of Crown's derby equaliser rather than Henry's goal for us

Welcome Edos 78 !!! as you probably gathered by now if you have filtered through a few threads that it does get lost in translation at times , but on the whole we are a good bunch of fervent supporters expressing our views how we see fit to do so !!. Nice picture of time gone by ... But don't worry they have not had much else to celebrate against us in the past ... so we'll let them have this moment of whatever they want to call it !!

Thanks FrenchStone - look forward to the debate!
To get started I thought we were really hard done by on Saturday. Chelmsford were well organised but barely troubled us.
I did like the look of their CB Marvin Ekpiteta - he'd be one to keep an eye on.

Quite right , but you couldn't have overlooked the fact that we also need a bit more fire power up front as we lack a proven goal scorer at this level !! ... We have just acquired the services of Adam Birchall on a season long loan , but we are still short in that position. 3 forwards at present ... One , Frannie Collin , is about to be loaned out ... 50 goals in the last 2 seasons for us , but deemed not up to it !! secondly , Alex Akrofi, bought last season after one cup game against us and was re-loaned to his former club after a few games because he couldn't hit a barn door for us!! ... This year , he has however scored 3 or 4 goals so far , hence why he has been selected in front of the afore mentioned striker. And finally Jay May, last year some people didn't give him the light of day even in the Ryman Premier ...He ended up as our leading goal scorer ! ... However this year his pace and style is not quite up to this standard , having said that he is our second leading goal scorer thus far ! ...Nice and honest guy , maybe a league too high for him though !!. All said this is my opinion and others will jump on the bandwagon to critisize it !!. That's our forum !!!

Along long time ago when they played in the same league we are in now?

Frannie "deemed not up to it!!"
French Stone, you can't be serious. He's out of form so he has gone out on loan, that is all. If I wanted to start a warped rumour, I'd begin by telling it to you.

I'm confused I thought Maidstone United were founded in 2012 when they opened the Gallagher stadium, where are the older supporters of this other team called Maidstone and why hasn't a thread been started about this mythical team that seem to share our name and another thing I'm pretty sure Barton only ever played for Newcastle
