Folkestone res 0 Margate res 2

[TSO]

Goals in the 1st half from Shane Brown and Chris Lewis.

 

Chalmers-Stevens

Stokes, Gray, Treadwell, Harker

Axon, The Oltinator, Winnett, Payne

Lewis, Brown

 

Subs used McAree and I think it was the same lad that started Saturday against Dartford.

 

Took a two goal lead and just cruised to an easy win. Folkestone had a few half chances and one well struck shot that Scott tipped over the bar in the 1st half. Other than that he made the game look very easy and never really got tested again due to his class, reading of the game, the team all listening (and inturn learning) to what he was saying forcing the opposition to shoot wide of the target. Great to watch.

First goal came from Shane running onto the ball midway into the oppositions half. Running at the defender beating him and striking it with his left foot past the Folkestone keeper.

Second came from German (Chris Lewis) crossing the ball into the box from the right hand edge of the penalty area. Shane playing havock in the box with the defence and German running around into the box to tuck the ball in under the keeper.

 

Semi Finals here we come. Folkestone gave it a go and came close a few times but were never really on target. Always thought that our lads had another few gears that they could have kicked into if they needed to.

Fantastic-well done Margate

 

Tonbridge at HDP in the semi final.

 

Should be interesting-don't know how this works-but Tonbridge reserves not in the kent League

[BlueGate Alan]

Great stuff, well done lads.

[Coffin Ender]

Tonbridge reserves play in the Suburban League alongside the likes of AFC Wimbledon, Eastleigh, Sutton and Tooting.

 

[BlueGate Alan]

Thanks CE, will be easy then

[BlueGate Alan]

Just looked they are 14th out of 18 in the Premier League, 21 points from 19 games.

Was a good game, both sides cancelled each other out in the first half despite getting 2 goals. Great ball from Winnett to set up Shane for his goal. Chris Lewis was different class worked so hard and effortlessly passed the defence on a number of occasions. 2nd half margate seemed more relaxed and started to dominate. Midfield were quiet for once. But Stokes at right back had a good game. MOM Chris Lewis

[michael]

Is Ollie Gray a regular central defender now,as opposed to a left back ?

 

I did wonder whether he may progress to the first team at left back over the next 12 months ?

[BlueGate Alan]

He is more a utility player Michael, saw him playing in midfield for U18's other night when they thrashed Ramsgate.

[Guernsey Tom]

[BlueGate Alan]

I will do as soon as I know it GT.
