The score line flatters Torquay a bit, they had some well-taken goals from distance, highlights worth watching for these alone.

Unsurprisingly, tonight's Under 18s game at Northwood is off.

Saturday's programme from the postponed Chesham fixture contained an update on the Academy Under 18s side. I've reproduced it below as it's time sensitive. The lads are scheduled to visit Northwood this Wednesday evening, obviously this is weather dependent, I will post on here as soon as I know ...

Hope springs eternal. If the game is on, tomorrow's programme is printed and will be available in the Beavers Trust shed from 1pm, 40 pages for £3.

This edition includes:
- Exclusive interview with Max Kretzschmar
- Colin Palmer reviews some recent matchday programmes from around the leagues ...

Merry Christmas all!

The point about Nathan Paul-Lavaly was one of my main takeaways from the game as well. He was very effectively stopped from playing by a side who had clearly done their homework on him. As soon as he got the ball he was surrounded, so we didn't benefit from his creativity and unpredictability. I ...

We travel to 24th placed Eastbourne Borough this Saturday. The Sports, as they are nicknamed, are coming off the back of a 7-0 reverse in Torquay at the weekend and have just 1 win in 7 games. Perhaps this is the game to turn the corner, their confidence will be low. C'mon Beavers!
