I will take any kind of win on our first home game which will hopefully give us confidence for the season. Good defensive display and Williamson was in the right place for his goal. He will take confidence from that and finally Beano looks a far better player than last season and is willing to shoot. My MOM was Yeates who attacked defenders and wasn't afraid to shoot at goal and it was his shot that their keeper parried for our goal. Saturday will be another big test.

For me Andrew Boyce was my MOM. Won pretty well every header he went for & showed great determination and self control. It was Boyce who actually kept us in the match in the first half with an absolutely brilliant goal line clearance with Stack beaten!! Reda might be great in defense but his knack of getting booked is a sad negative which now means that after only 2 matches he is out suspended for the D&R match! Our defense overall was very solid under considerable pressure; remember that Sutton were fresh from beating Leyton Orient and were bound to be on a particular high. Still, it was interesting to see 5 of our former players turn out for Sutton's first team! As Hilly will always truthfully say, no match will be "easy" so it's great to get a win in our first home match; hopefully we can rebuild Fortress Silverlake once more Totally agree Boyce was fantastic. To me he also looks a natural leader. He was the one issuing orders at the back. Very good 2nd half performance overall, glad RH changed tactics a half time.

definately a more enjoyable evening as the night wore on. absolutely cracking strike from beano that struck the bar, that would really have put the icing on the cake. but as others have said just happy to get 3 points really, could easily have ended up with 1 pt rather than 3

just thought we got a bit lucky on tuesday. Could/probably should have been a draw or we could have got beat.
mind you i watched the sutton highlights and sutton didn't throw that much at us, didn't see the pen appeal they had?
