Anyone know what the parking situation is there?

There's a fair bit of room at the Community Centre on the link road to the ground - that was where most people parked last time, as parking at the ground itself is limited to players / officials. Alternatively there is a town car park that has a path that links it to the ground

I think the town car park http://www.chiltern.gov.uk/article/6728 ... hurch-Lane used to be free on Saturday afternoons, but it isnt now.

Looking forward to Saturday, let's go to Chalfont St Peter, beat them, bag the 3 points.

(Let's put in a similar performance) as what was shown yesterday, (at Dunstable)

There is a good chance we will improve their average home attendance of 72.
Only Kidlington in the entire Southern League have a worse attendance record (64)

My first game since the play offs - excited to see Hoban in a Diamonds shirt again playing alongside 5 Diamonds CoE alumni. COYD!

We looked good although definitely two points dropped.

Unsure why after giving their left back a torrid time for 25 minutes, and then finally drawing the booking/first goal, Gyasi was switched over to to the left? Hoban should be wide left.

Ref absolute bellend.

There were extenuating circumstances today (awful officiating, awful playing surface) but that is 2 points chucked away in successive weekends against vastly inferior opposition.

We could have done with picking up those 4 points particularly with a tough few games coming up in the league in October.

I see Hartley Wintney put 6 past Arlesey today - at Arlesey.

But on the other hand top of the table Moneyfields couldn't beat Dunstable who we dispatched with ease on Wednesday! It is still finding your feet time at the moment but I agree dropping 4 points in two successive weekends is far from ideal and very disappointing. We are just not clinical enough at the moment and it is costing us points. We are already 6 points behind the leaders having only played 8 games with some very difficult games coming up.

In a nutshell:

Shit ground.
Shit clubhouse.
Shit beer.
Shit pitch.
Shit opposition.
Shit ref.
Shit result.
