Firstly just take a minute to soak up this fact ..

Staines haven't won a Saturday game since December 5th

Now onto tokays game .. It's clear that Hippolyte has good contacts bringing in new players after 3 days as manager,add to that having the balls to start them today.
All the neway players looked comfortable and hit the (muddy) ground running.

First half was tight..Jack Turner made 3 or 4 top class saves and we looked comfortable in everything we were doing.

Bearing in mind all the changes and where we are in the league today's game was a free hit . We need to worry more about beating the teams around us .
So the 2nd half was a bit tougher . Tonbridge came out stronger and our task became tougher when Bennett was sent off for deliberate hand ball . Turner saving the following penalty.

Strangely the opening goal came from what has turned out to be our weakness this season a corner .. however this time it was a staines corner, poorly played into the near post. They broke away and scored.

We had done well holding on in a scrappy game and once they scored the 2nd it was game over .

Boyakes sending off was pure stupidity by the player .. running 20 yards to push a player was unacceptable and the red card was fully deserved.

Massive game on Tuesday. .

And don't forget
