Re: Testimonial Matches/ Pre and Mid Season Friendlies

“ West Ham United sent their first team in 2008 (Francis Quarm put us ahead before we eventually lost 4-2, in front of a crowd of 3,118)”
I think I’m right in saying that Quarm actually worked for West Ham at that time in their admin office so he was doubly delighted at scoring against them. Decent ...

Re: Maidstone (h) 20th Dec

Re: Floodlights.....

Yes, the blighter’s been there all summer I think. I had a wander in a couple of times - once at the invitation of Alistair Bruce - just to have a nose around and this chap, rather aggressively I thought, told me to go forth. I complied of course; one must do all one can to propitiate the gods of ...

He was good when he played for Hampton City and even better with Maidenhead City!
Very amusing but, for the avoidance of doubt, his appointment is with Reading City of the Combined Counties league

Re: Playoffs

I’m sure we’ve all got a few old friends at Rectory Meadow so would be nice to see the Villa progress this evening.

Re: Farnborough at home

I too feel sorry for the young bloke in goal. I also am impressed with what the team achieved in the first half of the season when many of us feared the worst.
