Brilliant for Bromley, just shows what can be done locally, not to long ago we were facing Sutton and beating them 6 - 1 !

I can remember us playing Forest Green Rovers at Erith and Belvedere old ground, some significant investment made. I wonder if Dorking will be next !

Full marks to the Tonbridge Players , I am willing to bet that many will NOT be there next season

Add to that the stupid sacking of Darren Blackburn at Sittingbourne as he would be too busy building an extension to his house and KENT doesnt come out with much credit this week
Darren Blackburn is now part of the management team at Hythe Town FC, he was appointed by their new manager Steve Watt.
Certainly a step up from Sittingbourne.

Not sure if he was fully fit or not but prior didn’t exactly set the world on fire when he was here previously

Jason had suffered a major injury before he came to us. Top class player and usually scores against the Darts. Don't think he was all that happy playing for them.

Correct response is: “No, but thanks for the tip” ;)

Jason Prior has signed for Havant. Fully expect them to be back up towards the top of the table, especially if he stays fit.

Dorking just announced they have signed Mekki from the Fleet , NOT the marquis signing their fans wanted as it wasnt Ryan Seager or Dan Wilks BUT there is still time - watch this space !!!!!

Mekki will do a good job for Dorking Duke.

I enjoyed watching him play for Tranmere a few seasons back. Also played at Bromley before his move to Fleet. But don't really know what happened to him at the Fleet because he didn't seem to play that many games, but when he did he seemed to be well involved in games, whether scoring or providing. Don't know whether he was getting injured or just not being selected. But always put in a good shift when I watched him.

Ryan Seager has left Hungerford to join Dorking. Will be tough for them to replace him.
