THE VISITORS

Canterbury City was revived in 2007after folding in 2000-01. They are the firstfootball club in the country to be formedas a Community Interest Company andwon promotion from the Kent CountyLeague Division II (East) in their firstseason. They followed this by securingpromotion to the Premier division lastseason after an unbeaten run and winningthe Les Leckie Cup.

As a community based club, they runseveral sides including Youths, Women’s,Girls’, Special Needs, and Homeless.

Although for some fifty years therewere various versions of a City club, it wasnot until 1947 that a truly representativeone came about. For many years theyplayed in the Kent League, the SouthernLeague, and the Metropolitan Leaguewhich they joined in 1958, finishing thirdand guaranteeing promotion to the South-ern League Division One.

During the 1960s City twice reachedthe first round of the FA Cup. In 1963-64

they lost 6-0 at home to Torquay Unitedbefore a club record crowd of 3,001 and in1968-69 they went to Swindon and, by allaccounts, were unlucky to lose 1-0.

During the early 1970s they struggledin the Southern Division and by the early1990s they were also in financial trouble.They returned to the Kent League and al-though initially doing well, they finally fin-ished bottom in two consecutive seasonsand folded.

Their home ground of Kingsmead Stadi-um has now been re-developed forhousing but the Canterbury City Council isworking with the club to provide a brandnew “Football Hub” in the City which it ishoped will become the football club’shome within the next two years. Thisseason they play home games at AshfordUnited FC.

The club is sponsored by local solicitorsRobinsons

There was an eight-goal thriller forthose at the Beaconsfield as Chiches-ter City came from behind to win atten-man Hailsham Town. A brace fromGeorge Callingham put the Stringers2-0 up at half time, before MichaelFrangou converted from the spot tohalve the deficit after Stuart Lewissaw red for handball. Frangou thenbrought Chi level at 2-2, only forShaun Lee to fire Ian Stevens’ sideback in front with just eleven minutesremaining. However, Chi made theirman advantage tell with Kieran Hart-ley scoring twice in the final tenminutes, and Jimmy Wild also ontarget, to run out 5-3 winners.

over promoted AFC Uckfield Town.Dan Martin scored twice, with newsignings Joe Gromett, Terrell Lewisand Dan Simmonds completing thescoring in a 5-2 win at Nyetimber Lane.Drew Greenall and Steve Dallawaywere on target for the Oaks.

The high scoring in the Premier Divi-sion wasn’t done there, as Newhavencame from behind to score six againstWorthing United. The Mavericks, whoreturn to the top flight having wonDivision Two last season, went aheadthrough a Jack Hayward penalty –which was soon cancelled out by Con-nor Sidwell’s effort before the break.However, the Dockers ran riot in thesecond half, with Ryan Knight, RyanWalton, Callum Connor, Scott Dartnalland then Ebou Jallow all on thescoresheet in a 6-1 win at the Trafal-gar Ground.

ites for the title – but fell behind cour-tesy of Nathan Miles’ sixth minuteeffort. Despite that, the visitorsbounced back to share the pointsthrough a Joe Shelley penalty.

Mark Beard started life as Loxwoodmanager with three points at Arundel.Gary Pritchard’s second half goalproved to be the winner as the Mag-pies left Mill Road with a 2-1 win.
