DELIGHTED DEAN IS AS PROUD AS PUNCH!

WEALDSTONE produced a performance worthy of league leaders when they held off Dorking.

A first-half goal from Moses Emmanuel and a brace from Dennon Lewis canceled out Guiseppe Sole’s consolation. “It’s a special place [Grosvenor Vale] at the minute”, said Stones manager Dean Brennan. “I know we beat Bath seven-nil, but that’s the proudest I’ve been so far.”

Both sides made a quick start to the game, Emmanuel had the ball in the net but was ruled out for offside inside three minutes.

Stones keeper Aston Oxborough made his first save moments later, denying Niall McManus by tipping his effort on to the post.

Danny Green and Emmanuel then came closer to putting the leaders ahead, shooting just wide.
