Looking at some of the weather forecasts both matches this week could be in jeopardy - hope they're wrong !

Vital week - two "must not" lose games !

Not sure what forecasts you've seen, both BBC and the Weather app on my phone show Wednesday evening to be very wet, but everything else OK. Cold but OK.

Need everyone out in force for what is a huge game. Our midweek attendances have unsurprisingly been much lower than Saturday attendances, we could do with a Saturday attendance on Tuesday.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

When I looked at the weekend (on accuweather) it said harsh frost overnight and heavy rain/wintery showers, but they've revised it now!

Happy days !! :biggrin:

The pitch must have firmed up well today so I'm hopeful of a good surface tomorrow evening which should suit us.

Fantastic performance from start to finish with 2-0 flattering them. Hoban outstanding and he wasn't the only one. Now Ashton is back fully fit our defence is looking solid again. Great attendance and the ref was clueless.

A better performance from Claudio but he was still incredibly frustrating to watch. Made some good runs into the box but on most occasions it would've been better to pass! Also he needs to aim his cross towards players, not just the box. Other than that he played much better today. Ref was absolutely shocking, quite how he gave Claudio a yellow after a couple of their players did the same thing I don't know! Must be a K*ttering fan.

EDIT: of course Egham won the game late into the second half... Kings Langley also won today but Fleet managed to put 8 past Barton Rovers!

How on earth did Fleet win 8-1 away from home, only their second away win :blink:

But good, solid win tonight, didn't think much of St Ives though. Haven't seen Claudio play that well in months (although I haven't been to many away games recently), great to see him terrorising defences again, hope he can continue that between now and the end of the season cause I've thought it's a bit harsh on Richards considering how good he's looked at times since he joined, has he been injured?

Really looking forward to Saturday now, 1st v 2nd, first meeting between the 2 sides since that game, should be an exciting game, 700+ crowd as well maybe? Good midweek crowd tonight too, higher than the team up the road :clapping:

55 people there to see Kings Langley win tonight - can't see them bringing many can you? :cheesy:

Massive game Saturday !! We've passed the first test this week with flying colours - now for the big one!!

KL are a good side - but on our day we're better!

Big improvements needed from Stevo and Hally who we know can do so much more than they showed tonight - great game from Quigs who I thought started off slowly but improved, Tom Lorraine put in one hell of a shift tonight and 2-0 flattered them, they could have been on the wrong side of a battering to be honest !!

Can't wait for Saturday now :biggrin:
