Tbh it was all a bit quiet after Aveley scored but Stones pressed in the last few minutes.
Stones shaded possession and made better chances but not firing on all cylinders.
C'mon George, fire them up !

With Gurung's disciplinary record, it's probably a good idea that George has taken him off at half-time.

Hes always a red card waiting to happening.

Easy to see how this will go now. Aveley will waste as much time as possible, including feining injury, inviting us forward, all eleven behind the ball etc, etc.
And why not?
Still doesn't feel right though and we desperately need that bit of luck, magic or both.

Oh well. It's only a game and I won't have to traipse to Worthing on Sunday

[Deleted]

Well done Matt. We deserved that.

Spoke too soon

Their keeper is definitely keeping them in the game at the moment. Way too much play acting from Aveley.

Keeper has dine well but Aveley playing the ball around.
Anyones game

Ironic therefore that the keeper should have done better with Mo's shot and maybe would have done if he'd hit it cleanly.
Whatever. We deserved our win for sheer tenacity. Mo Faal certainly made a difference when he came on. Corne was everywhere while Rush and Tanga kept them under pressure the whole game, which is why they eventually wilted.
Aveley a really awkward side so all the better that we finally beat them.

Don’t know what the ticket allocation is for Sunday, but their website is showing as none now available to home fans

Have watched Faal’s goal several times now, still can’t see how it got passed the keeper

It was one of those odd angles you don’t think will go in, but what do I know?

[Deleted]

A strange goal.
The angle Mo scuffed it was great, right into the corner.
It seemed to take ages to find the back of the net.
Their keeper was rooted to the spot.
Maybe it was a mis-kick but nobody cares.
