Yesterday afternoon we came away from our trip to Folkestone with 3 points in the bag, It might not have been a free flowing game of football but at this stage of the season it's the point's that count.
The turning point of the game was a penalty award on 70 minutes to Folkestone but Andy Little was up to the task and saved what was a weak penalty. Then 2 minutes later Wales crossed the ball for Jolly to tap home from 3 yards. We could of made it 2-0 in the final seconds but the keeper managed to block Darlington's effort
This Afternoon we visit Folkestone and the matchday service will be in operation I will try and post team news by 14:45 and then all the action from 15:00, to follow the action click the matchday link above.

Another 1-1 draw today in a game that we should of had wrapped up before half time, but we are still in the playoff's 1 point ahead of Margate who visit Chelmsford next weekend. We are also only 3 points of current second place so it looks as if this will go right to the Wire.

I have now added the result for the Man of The Match vote from the 9-0 victory over Slough and you can view the result by clicking here.
This lunchtime we played at a 0-0 draw at Boreham Wood, it was a game of few clear cut chances with both teams hitting the cross bar and we had a chance in the last minute cleared from very close to the line. Neither team played badly but neither did enough to wrap up all the points.
So with our game completed we had to sit back and see what impact the afternoon games would have on the league table, the big result of the afternoon was that Margate drew 2-2 at Slough, Margate also had 2 players sent off and their suspensions will be served for the final weeks of the season, starting from 21 April 2007.

I'm sure this was the reaction that everyone had when you heard about the FA decision, most of us had come to well if we get X number of points deducted it will have been as fair as we can expect most people expected about 9 points so 3 points was amazing.
I spoke to about 6 people by phone on hearing the verdict and everyone just couldn't believe it. This hasn't been about 1 day this has been about a huge off the team effort a lot of it we most probably not know about but the public face has of course been Erik and then the brilliance of Jim Sturman.

Tonight we beat Carshalton 2-0 at Kingsmeadow to return to the top of the table, the first goal was on 8 minutes and resulted from a corner and either a header by roscoe or the Carshalton number 5, their was no doubt on the second on 21 minutes when a bit of Steve Ferguson magic when he fired in a shot from somewhere between the touchline and the 18 yard box and over the keeper's head and under the bar.
We Played out the rest of the game and Lewis cook almost added to the score line but his free kick cannoned back off the crossbar with the keeper well beaten. The defence and keeper Paul Smith did what was needed of them to ensure we kept a clean sheet.

For the second time this season thee game between us and Margate finished 0-0 their were few clear cut chances for either side although Margate perhaps had the best of them when a quick hooked shot went over the bar and wide in the first half. I think the result was fair and showed two very well organised teams, with Chelmsford having their game called off and Bromley winning we dropped to 3rd but 1 point covers all three of us.
This afternoon we are due to face Margate in the league if you are going to the game remember that no trains are going to Norbiton today, if you cant make the game you can follow all the action on the Matchday service by clicking the links above the team news should be posted by 14:30 and then all the action from kick off at 15:00.
