Should never have let that break happen for the winner.
Someone should have took one for the team.
Please dont thank/mention the fans in the post match interview Danny as I couldnt give a F*88

Hello, I was the fan that got jumped by the chelmsford fans. I am in fact a welling fan however couldnt gain access to the welling side as its not wheelchair accessible. I have a small needle fitted at the back of my arm which was ripped out and I have an injury to my ribs, head and a cut side. I am ok just shaken up. thank you to the paramedics for acting so quickly

 My apologies I was told you were from Chelmsford. I do hope youre ok. I understand we used to have wheelchair spaces next to what is now the outside bar. Ive never seen them used in 20 years. I will make some enquiries tomorrow when Im at the ground. 

Fk me, ok, one of those ok let's go posts. Boring sods who can't handle long posts piss off now.

Everyone else, I watched the Saturday Hemel highlights a second time, to look beyond the crappy refereeing, and on second view realised in our second game with this new team we had 8 clear shots on goal, so were much more creative than the score due to the ref suggests. It was much better than I had realised at the time.

Onto tonight's Chelmsford game, wow, they moved the ball around so quickly, they reminded me of Ebbsfleet last season. Yet we matched them. In this early season before form settles down it is hard to know what results mean, but if Chelmsford (now third) carry on like this they will get a play off spot, so to match that sort of team as we did today was a seriously good performance, and we may only realise that in due course.

David Kamara played really well, best performance from one of our attacking players so far this season. He's only 17, so blimey, 2 years ago he was still playing under 15. He is full of confidence with penalties, after scoring loads of penalties, so who knows why Will Wood took the penalty.

Our number 24 in defence was fab.

We are better than scores suggest, it is all ifs and buts, but if we had had a ref against Hemel who knew the rules of football we would have won 1 - 0. And if we had scored the penalty today we would have drawn 2 - 2 against a team who look nailed on to be play off contenders. And 4 points would put us comfortably midtable 9th - 15th. Instead we are on 0 points from 3 games, but the 16th team are only 3 points ahead of us, so we can recover lost ground.

That second half was so exciting, this time it went against us, other times we will win or draw.

The results arent reflecting the performances just now.

They were by far the best team we have played so far, I know knowledgeable posters here knew in advance how difficult this game was, but we didnt do anything wrong, they just edged a very close competitive match, and most other teams will lose against them.

The two yellow cards for Kassarte looked ridiculous to me, even worse than the red card on Saturday.  The red for the Chelmsford guy was also harsh but he had to give it after sending Kassarate off. 

Very disappointing to lose in the way we did. We clearly need a big man up top to hold the ball up. But that is expensive and the club no longer has a sugar daddy to write cheques. What was the point of him ever getting involved? Peter Taylor may well have kept us up. If not we would have gone down with a hungry young team with pride. Instead we were 'sold the dream' of a new start. It was all bollocks, all built on sand. The club must have lost  at least £100k last year.

I hope Paris is OK. This incident needs investigation so that it never happens again.

I got to the ground at 7pm and was quite surprised to find a long queue at the burger van. The £10 for a beer, burger and chips is very good value and the food was delicious. However the two people who work there clearly need more help as the wait times aren't fit for purpose.

Howard. Still the owner but not putting money in (apparently). But I do appreciate him paying a winding up petition.

Lachlan Byrd our 24 is with us on a short term contract, but he was outstanding, won every challenge, read the dangers so well, so I hope we can keep him longer term.
