New ground for a lot of people, in Eltham so nice and local. Should be a fairly strong Wings team as we havent got loads of trialists, just 4 this season.

I'll be going there on the B16 bus. Dead easy to get to and will only involve about 10 minutes walking time for me. If people use Street View on Google maps like I did then it will make getting to the ground easier.
I think all the trialists have been good, and it will be sad to see some of them not join the club.
Opposite Eltham Green School buses 122, 160, 321, B15 and B16 serve the "Yorkshire Grey" roundabout.
Nearest eatery would be mccardboard. Not sure about the club house as not been to this ground since son played there about 8 years ago. Pubs in Eltham good for real ale are Park Tavern in Plassy Place opposite Argos or the Wetherspoons on the corner of Court Road and Eltham High Street.
Hit bar and post aswell and their keeper did well.
Was impressed with Kiernan , really like Maguire aswell. Called Mainys hatrick earlier today. #GoldenBoot Edit: and Flacky who played right wing and played well and scored a cracker. They all did well and played as a team.
One not so good bit of news Theo went off injured in first half
Turner Faz Obo Day Franks Martin Theo Healy Cumbers Laffayette Flack
Second Half
Mott JoeBo Obo Day Franks Acheampong Hughes-Mason Kinch Maguire Main Baker
I THINK no teamsheet or tannoy
Highlights up in next 24 hours. No interview with the gaffer, will get his views on this weeks games at Faversham hopefully and get interviews at the Home friendlies.

Just got home from my delivery job traffic is sh!t A2, Westhorne Avenue Kidbrooke Park Road. I am setting off now just in case and the ground is only 7 mins away by car.
Maguire was neat and tidy but had plenty of possession against a tiring team in the second half. He keeps it simple but I am not sure he is BSS standard and might struggle physically and we have a few options in that area.
Hope F-J is not too badly injured as he offers a few different options across the midfield.
Thought Healy was stand out playe for us in the first half. Second half it was good to see Main finding the net - long may that continue. KHM showed glimpses of his class but needs more consistency.
Priority for me is more full back cover and maybe another midfield player.

Early days but signs of promise already.
I agree, early signs of quality, obvious that we wont see the best until later, We should be optimistic.
I completely trust our management team to bring the best out of our new players.
