How has this team ever survived? I mean, building the stadium so close to the M25 and the tunnel approach and in some cases the bridge escape was a massive mistake by the then Town council.
Maidstone called off their game with Aveley last night.
What was wrong with dropping down onto the 259 to Brighton and coming up the M23 to the M25 and circumnavigate clockwise to the Aveley ground that way. A bit of a weak excuse if you ask me.
A lot of teams and supporters have had to put up with gridlock in the Town and surrounding area since 2006.
Why oh why did they build it at PP? Should we not go groundshare with some other club? Like Maidstone or Aveley.
How our club has survived so long is beyond me.

Looking at the highlights we were close to salvaging a point after a disastrous first half. I like Olly's reaction to the goal, not milking the fact that he scored. He just wanted to get on with it.
The way Kent football is going at the moment not many clubs North of London will be worrying about using the River crossing next season anyway.

Nice to see Mark is putting himself up for the goalkeeper training. Maybe the ball turned in the air as well as dipping. Whatever it was it was a fine drive.
Never mind the fact that David saved us on a few occasions and probably deserves more than the number of votes he received..er...er.

Also I don't think he was expecting the ball to go in the net after a piss poor corner and getting past three defenders on the near post.
The first 45 was a total nightmare for us, in fact the first 18 minutes were.
I know we are beating ourselves up about the game but if Ade sorts out the defence, midfield and attack we could go for a promotion bid.
