I think that result sends a clear message to all those people who follow the other teams in the Rymans who were concerned or thought we would have thrown the towel in after the vote on Wednesday, we are going all out to either win this league or at least be in the play offs, well done to Jay and the boys Dear Toon the best way to show the conference that we are serious is to apply for promotion as champions and not go away as i am sure many of the suits would wish .

We'll that was a quick Sunday morning read. The Stones must be doing something right for a change, lol. Motm for me has to be Zac. His work ethic was great, as well as his 2 goals he was even in defence clearing corners.

Nice ground but the less said about the burger queue the better !! Luckily I didn't need it yesterday, but in the same vein I wondered why all those people voted for Three Bridges as a favourite non-league team/ground when they have the slowest burger provision in the history of the game - when I did need it! I started queuing at 2.30 pm and was served at 3.10 pm thus missing the beginning of the match. As you can tell, it's an itch I still scratch! At least the Kingstonian burger queue had a reasonable view of the pitch.

... If the Thamesmead game was a kick up the butt, well it was well given ... Two high class performances and plenty of goals to boot !!!. I missed the last home game has I have explained, but wasn't going to miss this away fixture ...and mighty glad I didn't ... Always knew we would get a result and it would be nice to think that we have had our "wobble" in term of play and results and that we can mount a serious challenge to win this league
... 3G ... We all need to do our bid to overturn that outrageous decision, I hear that more or less all the other Kent team involved in the voting turned us down ... bunch of hypocrites comes to mind ... They are only envious of what we are trying to achieve down in ME 14 !... They probably feel threatened that we might come up and whip their asses on the playing field or that their best players would come crawling to us and beg us to let them join our "revolution".
Back to the game on Saturday, as I queued up to the one and only eating outlet in the ground and a "Well Done" is due to the lady, who singlehandely served the many of us who made the trip without batting an eyelid !, I couldn't help notice so many new faces that I had never seen before at the away games I have attended this year, it seemed as if the hardcore fron the Townend made it their day out in numbers and voiced their support from the off, singing and being themselves, I say this in a complimentary way ... when "Trigger" took it upon himself to blow his whistle and almost got himself thrown out of the ground ! ... Gladly for him the stewards saw the "funny side" and allowed him to remain in.
The team performed with a professional attitude , every one of them was a hero, but special mention has to be made to Jerome who was everywhere at the back ! .. How many pair of legs has he got ?... They were poking here and there sweeping everything in his way ... and once again Zac proved what a good player he is, not because he scored two of the goals, but his constant running and vision. I have been guilty in the past to have a moan at Jay's "luck lustre demeanour" on the touchline, with his arms crossed or his hands in his pocket, not looking like an intersted party ... well obviously he seems to know how to motivate his squad and it obviously work for him and well done again for preparing those lads to produce an excellent and enjoyable game of football.
Kingstonian, as I remember came to our place back in August , smarting a record of no loss and no goal conceded till they met us ...then we turned them over ad trotted off the pitch moaning about our pitch ... this time same result, they had to win to overtake us and claim top spot, on their muddy , in places, pitch ... and we mugged them again by the extra goal for good measure !! ...
It was a shame to hear one of their "old foggy" supporters shout at the people around me, where I was in the second half ... "We'll see you again, next season" ... refering that even if we won the League, we wouldn't be allowed up because of our pitch ... adding ... "unless you go back to Sittingbourne" ... Morron and short sighted comes to mind !!
Thank you Maidstone Utd for giving us a team , a stadium and a board of directors that have this club in their upmost interests.
Well done on a great victory at one of the so called "big boys" in our League, we made them look ordinary ... their centre half was a picture of concentrated disbelief as he walked off the field ... even their strong tactics , left unpunished by another "weak" referee wasn't good enough to deny us our victory !!
You've had enough of me by now, I bet !! ...So I will only say C'MON YOU STONES ! ALLEZ LES AMBERS !! ...Good sporting weekend for me all around ... Sorry people but France won the Rugby game !!! ... Very much part of the community and I love my adopted town and country !!! ... England ... even after 40 years on these shores ...

They obviously think they will get the second promotion spot
