As there has been no comment on the game at all I'll post a little something.

In my honest I felt Lewes deserved a draw, losing was a little bit harsh on them. They played a good game, passed the ball very well indeed and have a very promising young team who in a couple of years time could become a very decent team at this level of football.

Some the fans early defending was a touch shaky, Mambo in particular on his debut had a touch of the jitters including taking "out" a Lewes winger when he had very chance of winning the ball cleanly, a very cynical challenge in which he was lucky to escape without a booking. But the young centreback grew in confidence as the game went on and I was very please for him that he scored the equaliser. Two goals in a minute knocked the stuffing out of Lewes a bit and it took them a while to find their feet again but having piled on constant pressure in the last ten minutes they just could not find that equalising goal.

Tamer Tuna had an excellent match upfront, he showed real promise and really deserved a goal for his efforts, a great debut from him.

Three more points, ten points out of the last possible twelve, things are going very well indeed at the moment.

From what I have seen of Tuna, think he should do well there and get some goals, think he is certainly someone who next year could be ready for League football. Would not be surprised to see him offered a contract at end of season, not sure about the the others

and Liam Bellamy to Merstham

OK, I'll say it.

Who the f*** are Merstham?

Not even heard of the place let alone the team.

I can see the benefit in getting the players out on loan for experience, regular games and playing against men rather than boys but Merstham!

Ryman League 1 South that 3 levels below the Blue Sq Prem

Same league Chris Dickson came from...

I think the league they go to gives some idea how the club rate them, and therefore who is likely to win a pro contract. Tuna, Mambo, Jenkinson all have a good chance, not so sure Bellamy or Pell will though. Likes of Ben Godfrey went on loan in the Isthmian leagues and ended up being released.

That said Jack Clark is pro and is only playing in the Isthmiam Premier, a level lower than Tuna, Mambo and Jenkinson.

Sounds like Yado Mambo is getting well known in the blue square south.
I saw this post on a chelmsford City fan forum.

Perhaps our Forwards ought to wear extra football pads next Monday....
Re. Staines Town's 18 year old 6'4" centre-back loanee from Charlton Athletic as reported in the Staines News-
He even confessed his first minute clattering of Lewes' Dan Royce was more born of a desire to impose himself than any rookie jitters.
He said: "That's something I do to clatter the forward early to leave a mark on him and let him know he's in for a game.
"So I saw him early doors so he knew who I was."
It might be an idea for Glenn to point out the article to Monday's referee....

Tuna now with Woking on work experience.

Still only Blue Square South, but it's all good experience for him. Harry Arter and Aswad Thomas are both there, and they're playing Welling on Saturday (who Carl Jenkinson is with).
