I'm actually going to a game (doesn't happen often).
So, can the Stones keep this little run going and win (or at least take a point) at high flying Dagenham or will we come down to Earth with a bump. Personally, I'd be very happy if we could manage another battling point.
So who's gan and what do you all think?

Love to go, but can't (mid-week and term time...) Last there 30 odd years ago, so it would be interesting to see how things have changed.
Predicting a score is next to impossible. Their form is very impressive, having only lost twice in over 10 games - but those losses were to Braintree and Guiseley! If we were at home, I'd hope we could hold them to a draw, or even snatch a lucky win, but at their place, when we've played only 4 days before, I fear we're going to be lucky to get away with 1 or 2-0.
But, looking at the fixtures/table, losing Tuesday night wouldn't do us too much harm, and it's much more important that we win Saturday. So, what really worries me is not so much losing, as picking up any injuries or red cards. Flish got really knocked about today, and we need him bang on form for Southport.
Perhaps I'll see you at the Southport game, Adrian?

We are not just fighting against Southport to stay up, so a win against Dagenham is just as important as victory against Southport. Ps our game with Dagenham is 3 days after today, not 4.

Depends how you count. Tuesday and Saturday are separated by two days, Tuesday is 3 days after Saturday, but Saturday is 4 days before Tuesday - which is what I wrote. |

I wondered that today - he seems to get a yellow most games, so he must be close, if not there. I suppose if there's one game where we might not need him, Southport at home might be it. But when does the ban start - will he miss D&R as well or Macclesfield? |

Best way of getting there? We putting a coach on? M25 then A13. But the tunnel will be a nightmare at that sort of time. |

Still not yet fit enough to get to a match it,s driving me mad, only good thing is it,s limited my input on here, hopefully looking at 2 weeks maximum before I,m back watching again, I,m sure we will bump into each other before the season ends matey |
