Nil nil at half time.

 

"Brilliant first half from the Rebels who created plenty and defended valiantly."

"Just faded in the second half and could not hold on for a point. Unlucky to lose one nil."

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

Unlucky not to get the draw, all worked hard and starting to play as a team.

 

Keep it up!

[Matt]

I was very disappointed not to have been able to make it. Sounds like another good effort.

 

I see the attendance was 96 - have we ever played in front of such a low crowd?

[Chris]

How did Jamie Jackson play. Looked a decent keeper when we played Burnham pre-season. Is that just a loan does anyone know?

[Reading Rebel]

Steve Daly sub? is he carrying an injury?

[Chris]

Michael Perrineau-Daly, not Steve Daly

[Matt]

Or even Daley

The players did well, they are now starting to play like a team. Lets hope they can stay as a team.

 

Wilko was shouting his heart out all game, and fully deserved his "Wilko" chant at the end.

 

Jackson made some good saves, and as said, the goal came off of one of his parries (more bad luck). Considering the wind out there, he only fumbled one or two high balls, a few other keepers would have fumbled a lot more.

 

Well done the players, manager, and fans

 

Come on Rebels.

Jacko is on loan from Hemel Hempstead Town, might have only been for the 1 game though.

[Martin]

Sorry for the limited updates fellas, it was a decent game with chances at either end but not too much to report as the game went on.

 

I must say I find it very sad that Leyton clearly have such strong financial support - they have a decent side and are in the process of building a 500 seater stand and a decent clubhouse whilst having such pitiful support. Their attendance on Tuesday was 15 and yesterday as Chris says well over half of the attendance was made up of Slough supporters. Why does Costas bother?

 

It was an excellent performance from the Rebels who deserved at least a point. It now seems that we have a decent, hungry young side where the players are all looking to make an impact and prove themselves at this level. When you add to that the experience and leadership of Wilko and Daly and the tireless front running from Matt Miller - it seems to me that we have plenty of hope and plenty to support on the pitch.

Once again enjoyed yesterday in terms of support - i brought along 4 people to add to the mass of Leyton supporters.

Thought we could have got a point, but after a busy first half, we didn't create much in the second and we need a bloody miracle to escape relegation this season.

Jacko is local though, and used to play for the reserves. Only left Burnham when they bought in Beames who did a runner from SYCOB having failed to get in here. Suprised he went to Hemel.
