Maidstone United (Hive) The Infinity Stones Match Thread

Jumping ahead but if we lose DB and I don’t think we will, Mel Gwinnett would be a serious contender to take over. Just kept H&R up last season, top 3 this year and beat Southend away in the trophy. Also is the continuation candidate who knows many of the players and has their respect already

I was thinking this earlier today, obviously we all hope it doesn't happen, but Gwinnett would be the ideal replacement for all the reasons you mention. I don't think we've ever poached another club's manager under TKs tenure though, so it would require a change of approach there.

We did make an approach for Gary Waddock when he was Aldershot manager which was knocked back

Interesting, I didn't realise that. Good news if in-work managers are an option for us going forward then.

Having just seen highlights have to agree with Brennan about the red card it does look rather harsh, At the time I thought it was a red but it does look like he was going for the ball.

Good to get 4 goals and a clean sheet.

We also made an approach to Wealdstone for Dean Brennan before we appointed Flowers! Brennan turned us down on the basis of what he said were promises later broken by Wealdstone, hence his acrimonious departure later on.

From the below article:

“”Barnet were very professional with their approach, they approached our football club, and a bid was accepted that met my release clause and allowed me to speak to Barnet,” Brennan admitted.”

Maidstone United have successfully appealed the red card shown to Timmy Abraham.

Too right. That was never a red card.
