Not a good result yesterday...HN Stanley played the leagues most improved team, Hastings Rovers. Prior to K/O, STANLEY had conceded just 3 goals.We were off to an unusually beaut start with a neat strike from our top player FINN. They equalised.1-1 at the break. 15 minutes into the second spell,(and playing without our regular centreback,) HASTINGS powered through the middle and netted 4 times !. Down 1-5, I was off to the nearby river to 'sleep'. Then,with 10 minutes to go, it started. Brilliant play and a "Never say die" attitude got us back 1,then 2, the, 3 goals to trail 4-5.Then right on the dot of fulltime, Henry slammed home the 5th from 3meters to make the final score 5-5. UNBELIEVABLE !! The sad fact is we slip from 1st to 3rd and unlikely to catch the CYCLONES as they have the 'easier' run in.Still , we'll be going hard.

Thats the 4th just gone in..
