Koroma nets on debut as Stones climb to 9th

First half strikes from Elliot Benyon, his third goal in three games, and debutant Omar ‘OJ’ Koroma lifted Stones to 9th place – their highest ever Conference South placing.

Koroma, with international clearance granted on Friday, was finally ready to make his competitive blues debut and the live-wire Gambian didn’t disappoint when he smashed home Wealdstone’s second in the 36th minute. It was a performance eclipsed only by Danny Green, the former-Margate man tormented his old employers all afternoon – assisting both goals in the process. Green was rightly awarded the coveted ‘man of the match’ tagline for his efforts.
