A good performance-I agree the midfield was excellent with Daryl & Dom not putting a foot wrong.We have got off to a good start although Hertford & Ashford had very limited attacking abilities and I do worry about our central defence when we come up against better opposition.I do not think that Sol is up to the standard required and although he may be a good leader but he does not set a good example as a captain by constantly disputing decisions with the officials-this attitude does not work in the team's favour and I think has cost us on quite a few occasions.However,it is all about opinions.I am very pleased with the quality of the squad and look forward to what I think will be a very good season. 

-Sad news-as the years pass by we lose another stalwart or two.Their hearts were truly in the club-Dave gave so much time in various duties over such a long period.Condolences to their families & friends.

The talent at our club is exceptional-let's not beat about the bush,we were a class above the opposition for the whole game.The quality of our passing & movement was a delight to watch-if only we could convert a small percentage of our chances Bedfont would have been embarrassed.The spirit & determination of this squad is first class and when something goes against them they just step up the pace.It was disappointing to lose another player to a straight red and this is unlike Khan(he had received a couple of heavy late tackles in the first half and I think he was a bit upset).Unfortunately,it was a pity because he was showing what a tremendous attacking/controlling midfielder he is.We did make the right decision with the starting line-up by not starting with Danny Bassett who has been a bit off his best form in the last few games and he was raring to go when he came on.Welldone to Dontal Stewart when he started with just a few minutes to go-he got straight into the game strongly providing a pin point cross for Danny to score.

i saw the game yesterday differently to Andy Mc.- in the first half we played excellent football showing first class control & quick close passing.We dominated the play & looked a class above Chalfont-we had them on the back foot with Dominic really up for the task & Khan alongside really running the game through our midfield.Up front Stefan Ilic demonstrated what a prospect he is and Hady Ghandour showed great skill & movement.Aspecial mention must be made of Daryl Coleman who was superb throughout in a defensive midfield role.I fail to understand the management decision to start with Jordan Wilson playing wide on the right & being kept on for the whole game.
So now the second half where our naive tactics & poor use of substitutes now changed the game & put us on the back foot-we sat back to defend & conceded control of the game instead of introducing pace on the wings-if we had done this I feel sure we would have had no problem in finishing off any challenge with ease.Instead of adjusting our tactics as Chalfont did we had to defend the whole of the second half and although we did this well thanks to the aerial ability of Simeone & Coleman we allowed the opposition to get strongly into the game.The introduction of Sol P.B. was baffling & removal of players like Khan plainly poor thinking.It was also apparent that nearly all attacking threats int his half came from their left wing side.
Anyway congratulations to the team for what was a very good performance but as I said earlier this season I like the style of play that Ashley & Cornelius aim for and we all have different ideas on starting line ups but in my opinion b out your use of substitutes is very poor.Any way onwards & upwards.

Alan,in my line up Lexus would take the place of Sol and with no disrespect to Sol would be a definite upgrade.Also Dee Pee,just to put your mind at rest,I keep many of my players incognito-I was of course referring to our new midfielder Clarence Coleman.

During my many years of watching Tooting,i must admit that I felt really disappointed & let down at Cheshunt yesterday-not by the effort & part performance of the team but with the inaction of  Ashley over the course of the game.Over the first half hour we had the game firmly under control,making the opposition look very ordinary then Daryl Coleman's rash tackle left us with 10 men.It was probably only a yellow but he did not need to do it-there was no danger in a midfield area.Then of course Sol went over the top with his protests & got a yellow-same old story.However once we composed ourselves,it became clear that we were quite capable of winning the game.Never the less,as we went into the second half we needed that bit of extra punch & pace up front to put them on the back foot.So with Isiah Jones sitting on the bench we left him there(Ashley -you must be joking).Abraham Odoh & Tope should have been given a start as well.We then gradually drifted out of the running as the silly goals started to come.Ashley I do want to continue to believe in you-I firmly believe in the youth aspect but your team selection & use of substitutes is truly appaling. 

Having given a lot of thought to the above subject,my views are as follows.I am totally in favour of trying to progress the club with the policy of using home grown talent-this may or may not work but I am hopeful and personally have confidence in Ashley & Cornelius-time will tell.There are several very talented players within the squad & we are capable of playing excellent attacking football.This however is where we currently have a major problem- we are a fast,quick passing side and require mobility up front.Isiah Jones is a fine player who achieves this but I would urge Ashley not to show misplaced loyalty to Billy Dunn who is obviously unfit. He does not hold up or win the ball in the air & we cannot afford to carry on with this line up- this is Billy as he is now not Billy the exceptional player of several years ago.I feel we have let a minimum of 3 points go so far this season by not scoring goals that our overall performance has deserved.
An obvious alternative up front seems ready made in Razzak Coleman who in 3 brief appearances has shown great ball control,pace & ability to hold up the ball & then lay off quality passes.Finally I would agree with other views in respect of Saturday's game,that Danny Bassett does not look happy as an attacking wing back- he is a good player but not a defender and most problems did come from the Hayes left wing.I always thought Tope was a very decent defender.I am also looking forward to seeing Eddie Dines recapture his fine form of last season.
