No Dr Feelgood factor for Lewes
Jan. 28 | “”You have to have the rain before you can have the rainbow” In just 24 hours I would be walking along Santa Monica Pier in SoCal as us surfers know it, the sunshine on my face and the sand between my toes. You can’t beat a bit...
Last minute .com again
Jan. 26 | After the cup exploits last week against AFC Sudbury, it was back to earth with a very big bang, complete with a “Kiss Me Quick Hat” on Saturday as five second half goals sunk the Rooks at Margate. The journey back from a day out at the...
The magic of the Alan Boon Cup

Derby Day part 4 – While Shepherd Neame watched their flock by night
Dec. 28 | Kent is one of the poorest counties in England when it comes to derbies at the moment. Last season the high point was the first Ebbsfleet United v Dartford derby for over a decade, whilst Ashford Town’s demise meant that the game versus Maidstone...
A Double dose of Essex United
Dec. 28 | What a day this promised to be. Three (well two and a half) fiercely contested local derbies, either side of the River Thames, which thanks to some fortuitous scheduling, that I could go to, as well as still putting in some “Fuller Festive Family...
