2-0 down after 20 mins at Maidstone Concord Rangers recovered well to win their FA Trophy game 2-3

Yes, the mighty Maidstone exit the trophy after being 2-0 up, SG must be distraught ?

Interesting fixture on Tuesday with Dulwich v Havant.

I would imagine another loss on Tuesday and the Dulwich manager will be under severe pressure with a relegation scrap in prospect and of course Dulwich could do us a favour by getting something from the game.

 

[Reading Rebel]

Just seen that Dulwich have signed striker Dylan Kearney from Sutton.

Kearney started the game yesterday but didn't score in their 1-0 loss to Hornchurch in the Trophy.

Kingstonian dumped Woking out of the Trophy today 3-1.

[Reading Rebel]

Having turned out for Romford in their first game under Glen Tamplin, according to his CV ex Slough striker Tony Mendy has now turned up at Beaconsfield and was on the bench in their 1-0 relegation game win over Blackfield and Langley fc.

Read over the weekend that they Kings Lynn game went to pens. It appears to have been the only game not to go to a replay. I am sure a few years back I saw something similar. 

Is it an option then, for all clubs to agree on whether the game is to be finished on the day as opposed to going to a replay in the Trophy (irrespective of round)?

Not sure on the finer details (round etc) but I think it is an option in the Trophy, decided prior to the game, to either go to a replay or finish the game on the day.

John Still and Hakkan Hayrettin had both spoken of the aim of reaching Wembley for the FA Trophy final having both personally reached it before. Following up the drab goalless draw at home to Chippenham Town with losing a 2-0 lead at home to Concord Rangers 
... they haven't got the club to where they want it to be yet!!!

RR instead of worring about other clubs problems how about suggesting ways on improving how to get more customers in our club.

Yes RR a few days before the game the Dover  site did say the clubs had agreed that the game would be concluded by  extra time and if required after the extra time by a penalty shootout

You keep talking about them.

SD, you don't seem to have grasped that this is a thread for discussing non league in general.

It doesn't mean myself or other supporters are worried about those clubs it's just having/sharing an interest in something different to just discussing Slough Town.

Maidenhead  pulled back to 2-2 by Hemel H went on to win 4-2  but instead of their usual 1300/1400 gate  just 387 paid on the gate

I was chatting to a Maidenhead fan at work today, and apparently Devonshire had said he was going to field a reserve team for this match...... seems most decided they weren’t going to pay to watch the reserves, but as it turned out Devonshire started with what looked like a full strength team.

Sounds a bit of a silly thing to say if it wasn't correct.
