Interesting game... I see they just signed Dion Pereira and he scored twice in their first pre-season game last week. Hopefully we can keep him quiet for 90 minutes and get something useful to show to what is likely to be a decent crowd given the Carroll signing.

He'll score a bucket load. He's playing against NLS defenders. We give him the right service, he'll get loads.

This is a great night to be a Dagger!!!

Let's be positive, embrace the change, and see where it takes us.

We've gone from Serry to this. It's fantastic for the club. We have lift off ...

Only seen first half team listed that included two trialists, Hemmings on bench, Wilson still not available and Umerah up front. On bench we had a further three trialists.
Would hope that Marsh and Wilson will be fit at the start of the season because impossible to judge any of these games at the ...

If he stays fit! BIG question isn’t it? He’s had a career blighted by injury but IF he can stay fit he should be an asset not only on the pitch but also in the dressing room his experience could be priceless. (the influence he could have on youngsters like Hemings could be immense) but a 3 year ...

As much as I am pleased to see Anwar's name in the mix, as the club has been missing a football head since the late great Dave Andrews (RIP) retired, I can't help but remember that Tamplin brought in Paul Benson to win people over.

100% acquisition - where do the full members stand in this ...

1 goal in two games against inferior opposition, same problems last season with no strikers any good or fit enough to play.


Any suggestion we got a decent first half out of Umerah? Not expecting 25 goals this season but these first two games should have been a confidence builder after Solihull ...

Anyone in attendance tonight? I assume the Trialists were the same tonight as last Friday? Slightly different starting XI by the look of social media but nothing I can see confirming a second half XI

Ebbsfleet will be pleased with that first game

In terms of who we've got who I think is actually good enough / new arrivals:

GK:
Howes
Nightingale

Centre backs:
PK
Maghoma
Panter

Wing backs:
Lusala
Young
Vigrass

Midfield:
Marsh
Lawless

Number 10:
Haigh
Khaleel (?)

Forwards:
Umerah
Hemmings
Wilson

Not required:
Rendall
N'Guessan ...

We have nineteen players contracted for the season including two goalkeepers.
In our game against Aveley we also had six trialists involved.
I would imagine that there are one or two players inherited from last season that Lee Bradbury would like to offload if possible.
My question is how many ...

One definitely confirmed is Bivesh Gurung, a defensive midfielder who was at Maidstone. They offered him a new deal and he seems relatively well rated by their fans.

One may be Rashawn Scott from Bishop Stortford. Certainly looks spitting image of him, and the bench were calling him Shaun ...

Does anyone have info about the trialists from yesterday?

If anyone thought last season was a low point for the team, this is a wake up in the first 60 today... 3-0 down and out muscled or out run to a man so far.

Keep hold of the number 4 on trial and find a way to use the giant number 3 in defense

If we start a competitive game with NGuessan and ...

Keep the number one on his toes... Definitely a solid signing for this level, especially for a team that traditionally hasn't been super solid with back up keepers
