Maidstone (away) The Match Thread Sinking Stones
So.... tomorrow we take on already relegated Maidstone United in a bananarama league fixture.
With Maidstone showing beadlesque form in the National League this feels like a game we should win but beware the wounded animal. With Barham and the chip on his shoulder having departed to Aldershot this should make the stones sedimentary to beat. I hope the Bees will approach this with a clean slate and with be onyx from the first minute with no quartz given.
Despite a fairly painful draw on Saturday a win here and 4 points over the Easter weekend would represent an egg-celent return. We will be hoping to hop to it and roll away the stones and rise again up the table.
Team wise we are restricted in that Moyo is our only recognised striker and although he has his limitations I don't fancy Powell leading the line on his own.
‐----------------------------Walker-------------------------------
---Wynter---Collinge---Potter---Okimo--Beard--
--------De Havilland---Fernandez--Pritchard-----
-----------------Moyo-------Kanu----------------------------
Subs: Callan, Woods, Powell, Hall, Armstrong
I am doing this one by train. Hoping to get back to winning ways

Is the game still on? Hoping so but we had torrential rain overnight

I was thinking that but not sure cheers - it'll be like an ice rink mind!
Re: Maidstone (away) The Match Thread Sinking Stones
Am I right in thinking that the away end is uncovered? ( I know it's only a few weeks since we last visited but that wasn't relevant then! )
Re: Maidstone (away) The Match Thread Sinking Stones
Is Moyo really a striker? I hadn't noticed.

Thanks for this. I was worried about a soaking.
Just proves how unobservant I am that despite having been twice before, I still needed to ask!

Agree, I don't feel he deserves the criticism he gets, for one he doesn't normally play when Nicki and Smith are available but then he is brought in from the dark and some expect for him t not the ground running, but for me we play as if Kabamba or Smith are up there, and he is not that kind of player, so hopefully if he is our only fit striker we give him a chance and actually play to his strengths. But whatever he needs support not pressure.
Re: Maidstone (away) The Match Thread Sinking Stones
We should play a front 3 of Powell,Moyo & Kanu today but I doubt that we will!

Re: Maidstone (away) The Match Thread Sinking Stones
Just met most the non playing squad on the high street, all in club gear bar Gorman, so he may be out for a while longer. Harry Smith was there too, and his injury looks to have healed impressively quickly, so he may be back for Sat. No sign of NK though.
