Do you remember the cup game against kennington played on a school pitch? Or the day we played two semi finals in one day - and won them both!! I remember going to a cup final on a waterlogged pitch, only to be told that the venue had changed and we were playing it at home (can't remember what cup it was, the original venue, the opposition, or the result!). And didn't the first semi final go to extra time? Made it a bit squeaky bum time about getting the players back to London Road for the second one... yes first game in Tonbridge and second at London Road.

Yes, the first one was at Tonbridge Invicta and I drove, it went to extra time and I got back to Aylesford in about 15 minutes, and the hopped on a bus and made the second game with 5 minutes to spare. That game was against Cranbrook I think but with my memory I cannot be 100% sure.

Think the final was the Weald of Kent Charity Cup v Tyler Hill, 2000? Was supposed to be at Tenterden.

I shall trust your memory with the rest of the information, given the abject failure of mine!

That and their manager calling Graham Martin a "f***ing garden gnome."

I think a couple of our regular fans played for Cranbrook against the Stones.. which demonstrated how far we'd fallen!

I think it might have been this game when I soured relations with our land lords,the mormons, by telling one prominent member to f**k off and shag your 14 year old daughter you loony. Oh the verbal power of lager. 🤣🍺🤣🍺🤣🍺

Can you climb a stile with style?
