Christmas is upon us and we have a bumper episode for you to sink your teeth into heading into the festivities.
It's a full house in the Captains Lounge as Tim takes Chris, Dave, Jez, Mark and Sudhir through a trawl of the questions asked by our listeners.
Also the subject of loans and keepers gets explained, and the contentious question of Ruislip over Harrow gets an airing. 
We also touch upon the sad news of the passing of Marvin Morgan.
Then there's the possible season defining Xmas programme with the two games between the Stones and Magpies.

It's teenage kicks as Paul gets to speak to 3 of our younger fans in this special episode of Stonescast.
Sammy, Will and Lucas are all dyed in the wool Stones fans, and the future of the club, but what do they think? More than you probably expect.
Yes, there's youthful exuberance, but there's pragmatism. But more importantly there's passion.
If you're a Stones fan then listening to this lot should inspire you. They start off a little in their shell, but it doesn't take them long to get going. Our regular panellists should be looking over their shoulder if they think their seats are safe!

The boys are back and there's loads to discuss. In this episode Paul, Adam, Chris and Sud look back at the games against the Cuckoos, Wrecsam and Ze French and the period of 5 games unbeaten.
Also the rise of Super Georgie Wickens and how his performances have been instrumental in the haul of 11 points out of 15 available, and the impact of the other loanees we've been able to attract to the club this season
A quick look at Stockport at home and Bromley away, and consider our first real season back at Non-Leagues top table. How are we doing on and off the field, and what do we need to be doing going forwards?

Nobody mention Grimsby.
Of course we talked about it, and picked over the bones of Weymouth, and gulp, Dagenham.
But that's not all. This episode Mark and the boys ask is it time for the young'uns to take over the Vale terraces, to change ends or not to change ends, catering or lack of it, and the upcoming return of DB and his Canons Park cuckoos.
In conversion with Mark is Dave, Leo and the return of a surprisingly calm Jez, and Tim nabs MotM from "that game" Matt Buse for a quick post match chat.

It's the glory of the Cup!
Daggers at home in store for the Stones this Saturday as the carrot of a potentially big First Round Proper tie is dangled in front of us once again.
But, we all know about our record in the Cup don't we?
Mark makes his debut in the hosts hot seat in this episode, and has Sudhir, Dave and new panellist Chris Lane along for the ride.
The boys look forwards to the up and coming fixtures and pick over the bones of our recent "1 out of 9 points" performances. Were they as bad as that points return suggests? What about "Plan B"? 

In this episode of Stonescast we learn the harsh lesson that you don't try to record your podcast during a monsoon! We've managed to edit out the worst of the rain noise, but there is an absolute deluge about 19 minutes in that defied any attempts to silence, but bear with it as it only lasts a couple of minutes.
Anyway, to business. Hillsy hosts with Sudhir, Dave, Paul and debutante Clive fielding the questions. We look back at the recent games, and forwards to Torquay, Eastleigh and the BT Sport Live Game verses Solihull at home.
It's also half term report time and the boys cast their eyes over the performances so far of both the squad and management.
In light of this evenings (Thurs 30th) news, they also discuss the perhaps surprise departure and the possible ramifications of the decision.
This is an independent Wealdstone Fans podcast, and the opinions expressed are of the individuals involved and are not endorsed by the club.

Paul leads Dave, Hillsy, and Jez in the discussion about the start to our season, 
Our first proper awayday in this division in more years than most of us want to think about at Chesterfield, and whether we should be disappointed to have "only taken 170..." there.
Also under the spotlight is the opener at home to Woking, and in particular under the microscope, the fixture against Southend at the Vale. How did we do both on and off the pitch?
Also we debate such diverse subjects as whether the digital age - in particular online ticket sales - is driving our more elderly less internet savvy fans away from attending games, mini-leagues within a league, playing it out from the back giving fans heart attacks, and whether a vasectomy is a cheaper option to buying replica kit.

Up the Stones!

It's a special!
Sudhir has press ganged a group of the "next generation" of Stones fans into the studio and talks to them about what on earth got them involved with the club, and what keeps them there.
Have these whippersnappers really got a different reason why they follow the club compared to the 50 somethings that normally appear on our cast? Is their experience the same or has non-league football changed since their parents started dragging them - often unwillingly - to matches?
There's of course frequent references to drinking, but it's Wealdstone so what did you expect?
Also Sudhir has a quick chat with new board appointee Darren Linden about comms and what the clubs is doing to try and engage the next-next generation of fans to Grosvenor Vale.
Joining Sud is regular contributor and generally old git Mark Hyde, with mainstays of the "middle-yoof revolution" Akhil Rawal, Tom Marshall, Rob Platt and Leo Werin.
It's a good one apart from the Host totally losing any concept of time and space near the end, so hope you enjoy.

Finally the new season is upon us, and in this episode the boys discuss what we've seen so far in pre-season, upcoming Home fixtures against Woking and Southend and how they think we'll deal with potentially large crowds at The Vale, and with Chesterfield on the horizon the excitement of the Away games that will come think and fast, and how our fans might discover awaydays aren't quite what they were before the heady heights of the National League.
Hillsy is in the chair, with coachmeister Dave along for the ride, as well as regulars Sudhir and Mark.

Coming up next week we have the "Middleyoof" special where we've dragged 4 second generation Stones fans away from their X-boxes and Panda Pops and forcefully made them speak about what the club means to them, instead of you having to listen to a bunch of old fogies going on about the halcyon days of football when it was so much better blah blah blah.

In this episode of Stonescast, Paul has a chat with Matty Saunders, and the boys discuss pre-season, new faces and new kits, what the club has planned for the incoming BELT hordes visiting the Vale, and a quick nod to Stones Legend Jonathan North and his testimonial.
