Another win will put us up to second or third.

Only two other matches on Tuesday night.

Fleet lost 4-0 to Royston today so we can get a comparison and free scoring Egham play Potters Bar.

<BUMP> Tonight.

[Mat.H]

Fleet are a few players down due to injury and 3 that can't get time off work.

Cant complain with 5 goals but I cant help feeling a bit disappointed we did not win more convincingly.

Now only 3 teams in the top 8 levels of English football still unbeaten in their respective leagues. Brighton, Solihull Moors and Diamonds.

Another decent win with five goals, only disappointment was conceding a couple against one of the weakest teams we'll see this season. Some superb strikes from Lorraine, Berwick and Joseph and a right footer from Sam Brown! Andy Hall got a deserved start from Saturday and was a class act causing problems for the Fleet defence. Possibly Tommy Berwick and Courtney Herbert's best games for the club, knowing that there's a fight for places in the attacking positions now. Leaves in the team in good stead for Saturday now!

A nice 5-2 win, agree win Lorraine MOTM,

Two sloppy goals to give away.

Well I was certainly pleased to see how good we looked going forward at times tonight (even if Fleet's defence in the first half made it feel like we were back in the UCL Division 1), Hall looked good again, while Berwick, Herbert and Lorraine had good games and some great goals too (along with 2 great strikes hitting the crossbar). But yeah, defensively we were a bit dodgy tonight, perhaps to be expected without Delroy there, but I do hope he's back for Saturday otherwise I fear it'll end up being about 5-5 (Barwell scored 5 tonight too) lol.

That was a very odd game. Hard to tell whether we were fantastic or Fleet were appalling, I don't mean to be rude but I think it might have been the latter! Some great goals mind you.

Agree with previous post about Berwick and Herbert. I've not seen Berwick play as well as that in a Diamonds shirt.

Attendance was a real disappointment. 322 ranks as one of our worst ever for a league game. I didn't realise we had that many Arsenal fans!
