Phil Handford
(Preview)
I think it is a shame Phil is not staying. We should recognise the contribution that Phil and Neil have made, as well as that of Ade. I hope we continue to keep a fitness instructor at the club - it made a noticeable difference to the team.

Coming up
(Preview)
Managed to get a couple of tickets for tomorrow's game between Bromley and AFC Wimbledon. Got me thinking- who do we want to come up? Bromley would be good for me as I live close to the ground, but AFC wimbledon will increase gates everywhere. I saw them at Carshalton earlier in the season and they must...

Kedwell

Someone at the game yesterday said that if we offered him a contract on equal terms and he refused it, that if he left us then the club he goes to would have to pay a compensation fee to Welling United via a tribunal. Is this correct? If so, thats great news as will help the new manager build a decent squad. An...

There's always still a chance?

I know it's a very big ask, but there is still a little chance that we may sneak into the play-offs. After Saturday's result at Bedford I definitely thought it was all over, but after tonight's results with Bishops Stortford drawing and Newport losing, we can just make the play-offs if other results go...

That performance tonight was clueless, inept, and simply wrong with regards to tactics. We have a striker (keds) that spends most of his time on the wing trying to get the ball - we have no one else to put the ball in the net - we are a hoof it team right now!!! 3 goals in 5 games is shocking - Adie has I am afraid...

Basingstoke supporters seem a nice bunch of people, but why must they have those friggin' drums? Havant apparantly did not allow them in, think we should adopt the same for next season, including trumpets and sundry. What next, someone will want to bring a harp in

Why all the negativity?
(Preview)
There seems to be so much negativity around at the mo - it's been a good season with the usual ups and downs and we are still on for the play-offs if we have a little bit of luck - we should all just be more positive and not look to all of the bad points all of the time - look at the good!
