😂😂😂 I don’t have a sidekick. Not for the first time I literally have no idea what you are talking about Maybe you should start drinking then as you may then make sense. I have read this conversation with interest, but all I can hear is "Your mother is a hampster, and your father smells of elderberries!" with the occasional "I fart in your general direction" added for additional comical effect. Addendum - Now I'm confused - Frenchstone likes this post! Why? Le bise de D'eath...

How did Akbani/Corne go? I still think we need strengthening in both areas anyway. Big improvement in Cornes all round game today, but in fairness he could hardly of got worse. He needs to take victories like today an move forward sure he has the ability just needs to keep telling himself he is good enough.

Lovely comments for a first win for The Mighty Stones ! More of the same please and we will believe that we can win or at the very least get into the play-offs! Very please for Dan Wishard to get a start and getting the goal that was the beginning of our comeback and our victory ! Glad to see that so many have so far made him man of the match in the official club website ! C'MON You Stones !! 🖤🧡⚽️

First half was hard to tell, the conditions (rain, strong wind) made it difficult for both teams and we struggled with our distribution with a lot of passes being over hit. The pitch was uneven as well and we took sometime to figure this out, had a good view of the cricket on the pitch next door once the rain stopped.
Their goal came about from some sloppy play from us but their forward still had to convert the chance and was clinical.
We started to get the ball down and spray some nice moves, on the right with hoyte, kyei, Allen and corne getting involved and it was this side who got the ball across and Wishart finished it off.
Second half we created chances and hit the bar, kyei then scored his penalty and then the game changer Hungerford broke away and Cole made a great save. This seemed to spur us and deflate them and we started to see some good play. A few times we were let down by final balls where our player had a few options and got caught in two minds. Some good play from wishart, who was in fine form all game imo, created a chance and with the ball across the box clovis a couple of yards out tapped the ball home. Olutade made a nice move to get around his man and was bundled over for the second penalty of the game took a decent pen but well saved by the keeper.
Will be interesting to see the next two games at home as there were times that our fans were on our players back in the first half and this did seem to affect confidence but once we took the lead and cole made that save and the fans got behind them the players did start to show that we have got some potential here and hopefully the home crowd get behind as i think there is more to come from this team. John Still did say that not every signing would work out and there'd have to be little tweaks but i think we just need to get behind the players rather than crucify them and we might have an enjoyable season (not saying champions or playoffs but a season where we can come away from games happy).

Good post. Hope we don't continue the poor home form of the past few years. Out of interest, how many Stones fans travelled away?

Difficult to tell as Stones were spread around the ground but I estimate at least 50% of the 430 crowd . Credit to the whole team and managers for coming over to the fans and spending time shaking hands and thanking the fans for coming. Big steps forward by all yesterday. Nice to enjoy a stones game again and come away with a smile. Can we please repeat this Tuesday night ? Wishart, Chesmain,corne, and Cole were outstanding for me, Khan was also decent. Also thought Kamdjo helped us out and took a grip of midfield when he came on .
