Delete the points for predicting the postponement. It was online somewhere.

Stones 2-0 Eastbourne.
Cold night, champions League on telly, approaching Christmas, school night... = low attendance.
I'll go for att' 1600.
(helped by several dozen Eastbourne as they're doing well in the league and don't have to worry about work as most of them retired about 100 years ago. 🤣

Like buses, you wait and wait for a home win then three turn up in quick succession and in that caught out almost a third of predictors who would almost certainly have backed a home win last season.
daveu was the only person to predict the 3-1 scoreline and rises half a dozen places in the table. Seventeen others kept the faith and picked up a brace for the home win. I wonder how many of the six who predicted 2-1 were cursing as our third crossed the line. nws strengthened his grip on mid-table by being just two out on the official attendance and a mention too for SidelineSid who was just two more off.
Next up is the return fixture from our opening game against St Albans where we won by a single goal. I note that the referee was D. England. Could this be ex PL ref Darren England who seems to have dropped off the radar in terms of major leagues? If it is, I hope he eventually finds his true level, which I suspect is school football along with Dave Hockaday who somehow talked himself into the manager's job at Leeds. His only previous job was at Forest Green Rovers and he is now head of football at a college in South Gloucestershire. Bitter? Moi?
St. Albans next and then a quick turn around for Aveley away on Monday evening - I'm sure the M25 will be fine... Those of you who made predictions for the original fixture they are still saved, but if you want to change you may of course do so. I might get the table updated in between, but we'll have to see.

Ahem. I predicted 3 goals! But 2 to them... And no, I wasn't willing Eastbourne to score a second towards the end, definitely not.
I'll call your Dave Hockaday, and raise you my Glen Roeder - so bad, he'd previously been sacked by Gillingham!

Ah ha - a renewed optimism! Time for me to bring out the big guns:

The good times are back!
