Angels win!!!

[Dan]

Chatham 1-2 Angels

Tonbridge gave a debut to Ray Powell, who is highly rated by Alan Walker and can play up front, in midfield or as a wing-back. Barnes scored the opener in the first half after some neat link-up play with Powell, and substitute Piscina doubled the lead with 9 minutes left. Chatham grabbed a consolation through Simon Austin on 85 minutes.

Another debutant late on as Alan Walker himself made a cameo, coming on as sub with three minutes left!

I'll add some photos later and may even do a report.

Team: 1 Reynolds, 2 Beales, 3 Tingley, 4 Moore, 5 Ainsworth (sub 16 Walker), 6 Royston, 7 Emblen (sub 14 Piscina), 8 Overton, 9 Powell, 10 Barr, 11 Barnes. Subs not used 12 Greatorex, 15 Wilson.

Hooray! We should be safe from relegation now...

This Year at any rate !!

Tuesday's opponents Spalding got annihilated 9-0 at Dorchester after appointing a new manager in midweek - probably means they'll beat us at Longmead then !!

The usually reliable King's Lynn website (www.thelinnets.co.uk) credits Salisbury with a 1-0 win at Stamford, rather than a 0-0 draw?

[BigTone]

Dan, it was definitely Stamford 0 Salisbury 0.

[Hammo]

I think you will find that Salisbury will not have the points deducted until after the appeal.
