Margate are coming...

Our penultimate friendly comes to town on Wednesday night (7.45pm kick-off)… and it should be friendly too as pound for pound they were the quietest home support I have visited given their numbers.  They may have their minds on another friendly, they host a Wolves side at the weekend.

Hopefully the game will go slightly better than the visit of Dartford did.  Old favourite Ibrahim keeping a clean sheet while Dembele notched up a goal against his old club.

It’s a fiver for adults to get in Wednesday, £2.50 if you’re U16 and free if you’re a season ticket holder or under 8.  Hope you enjoy the game.

So... where are we?

Apologies for the lack of updates… three weeks of travelling has taken its toll… no one has been banging on more door mind so I am probably updating for my own enjoyment but here we go.

Pre-season continues but with a loss away at Erith & Belvedere last night.  Stacy Long’s opener wiped out with two late goals.  Leatherhead now look to practice at home with the visit of Dartford Saturday.  Kick-off at 3pm.

Fixtures are out… Dulwich twice before 8 September?  Strange.

Travelling Tanners

Leatherhead kick off the season tomorrow with the now traditional fixture of Corinthian FC away.  An early chance of who has stayed, who as left and who has turned up looking for a game.

Unfortunately the chance of getting what would be a new ground for me slips by again.  Maybe next year…

Directions can be found here.  Kick off at 3pm.   Good luck fellas.

 

FA Trophy Draw

No FA Cup draw, I forgot we come in after the preliminary rounds.  The FA Trophy is out though and we are home to Ks.  I hope the work parties give the hatched areas a lick of paint for the occasion.  Game to be played 31 October.  We’ll need more stewards as we expect more than 287 (or another made up number) people.

In the FA Youth Cup we have drawn Lewes away.

 

The season starts here-ish

Keep your eye out for the FA Cup and Trophy draw today… then next week we can hope for the league fixtures.

My prediction for the FA Cup draw is a disappoint Met Police away… prove me wrong FA… prove me wrong…
