Enjoy the game From a Wealdstone perspective, our Mark SEASON TICKETS STILL TO BE COLLECTED Can the following fans or if you know them please see Nick DuGard or email [email protected] Joe Render Fiona Johnson Andy Richards Steve Wright MATCH SPONSOR - DAVID LEIGH It has become a family tradition, over the years to sponsor the game that falls on the date nearest to my birthday. I am very proud to be sponsoring the game today – not least because this marks a very signifi- cant birthday for me – and I could ask for no better way of celebrating, than by spending the day with family and friends at Grosvenor Vale. This season has already been a fairly dramatic one – and within just the first three months, we have already seen a number of significant highs and lows. One of the disappointing aspects for me, has been a lack of togetherness, at times, from the terraces. I think that we all need to remember that we are supporters – and so we should support the team. It seems to me that the players and the management are trying to get things right on the pitch; and despite some setbacks, I am sure that everyone from the Chairman to the fan behind the goal, wants the same thing – to see some good football and to get some good results. So let’s all get behind the boys, make some noise and cheer us on to victory. Come on you Stones!
