We weren't up at Hemel, so this is more of a general observation however my view is that this second season is all about consolidation: steer clear of relegation drama, continue to develop the structure of the club (and the ground itself) for a move towards fully pro, keep Hinsh and we'll be well placed for a proper challenge next season. Play-offs would be a bonus, of course! Personally I think we should aim for the play offs. Especially if we can get 1 or 2 home games. Just thinking about the extra revenue it will generate. And whatever happens we deal with it then.

A strange atmosphere at the match yesterday, almost a sense of resignation to the fact we were going to lose. Several of us were suspecting which way the match would go by half-way through the first half, after we had created several chances, Luque had missed the target when clean through and Joe Felix had toe-poked the ball past the keeper at a snail's pace. At least it wasn't 4-0, but if Hemel had had someone to get on the end of all those crosses in the second half, it should have been (not forgetting that they hit the post with the last kick of the match).
One of the Hemel people made an interesting point: there doesn't seem to be any talking on the pitch, which is perhaps where we miss Aarron the most (and Kane being out didn't help). As someone said on here after a recent defeat, when we let a goal in there isn't anyone on our side geeing up the rest of them; we just traipse back to the middle and wait for the opposition to stop celebrating.
