Well done Stones. Too easy. The commentator kept mentioning the noises in the Main Stand. Why can they get in It's where club officials and non playing squad members sit.

Hungerford game "interrupted" (?) Serious injury to a Hungerford player - according to the Concord twitter. Yeah, just seen it - sounds nasty. Hope he's OK. Game back underway again, so looks like we're heading back to 4th...

Interesting game - Welling away at Slough. Welling leading 3-1 at HT. Slough get one back on 70 mins, but Welling still looking good. Then Boateng gets sent off on 89, and Slough equalise with two goals in injury time! Welling fans must be rather unhappy...

Considering we short of arguably our two best players, that was pretty good. Corne and Ellil bossing things, but impressed with Luque, Brown and Oluwotsit in the middle too. Indeed he stood out for being just sharp and efficient. Shame I can't spell his name. Also a shame we didn't do more second half, but great come back from midweek.

It’s nice to see we now have a team that looks comfortable playing at home

It's nice to see but also a bit strange.
Did our team sort of freeze or get nervous in front of 2,000 supporters ?
tbf I never did accept the 12th man theory, cause too often it just didn't happen.
Still no grumbles, no complaints about the way the team is shaping up now with Hak at the helm.
Seems supporters were right not to be too bothered about the FA Cup exit.
Apart from missing a few dollars from a cup run, league matches are more important.
So looking good, feeling good, happy days are here again !

There is always the FA Trophy still to come where we can win through to the final in an empty Wembley stadium. Wouldn't that be just our luck?☹

Could be the pressure I suppose. We just look a lot more creative this year. Good to see.
Last season, we struggled against some awful teams.

Apart from missing a few dollars from a cup run, league matches are more important. So looking good, feeling good, happy days are here again ! I was wondering just this. Could it be that teams play better without the pressure of the home crowd? It doesn't seem plausable, but then we've never known anything but having crowds, so we don't really know. I bloody hope not - I enjoy going to football! As for the 12th man thing - I agree. It's fine when the Elvis End are singing, but all too often all the players can hear is people moaning when a pass goes wrong, or a goal is missed, or a corner/free-kick bollocked up. Or, worse still, some fat (they always are) bigmouth in row G singling out a player and slagging him off every time he comes over to that side of the pitch. And we almost never seem to be able to support the team vocally when things are going badly, and they need the '12th man'. Wouldn't it be great if the EE could make all that noise when we were 2 down?

When was the last time we were 3-0 at half time in a league game? Would be good to see us being really ruthless in the second half. Hemel are poor, so make the most of it! Cheltenham Town springs to mind. What was the league element?

How lovely to peek at scores and see us 3-0 up at HT

Oh I see your on about since we moved to the Gallagher and not when we played during the wilderness years,I keep forgetting that 1600 of our crowd couldnt be bothered to watch us for 20 years.
