Old Boys Football

July 27, 2010 in Football

Following the addition of the history of the Football Club recently, it is worth visiting the link below to a recent article in the East Kent Gazette referring to the Club in the 50′s and 60′s.  Dick Day and Ashley Read have contributed their memories and refer to Brian Tyler, still a regular at the Annual Dinner, who was still performing in his forties when I first started playing for the Club whilst still at school in 1967.

Let’s hear from other former players with tales of skill, artistry and football magic!

June 9, 2010 in Football, Sports

Football Report: Sittingbourne 5 a side league. Season 09/10.

The season finished in May with an upturn in our fortunes. Disappointingly we couldn’t muster enough players to field a team on two of the last three weeks resulting in four 0-4 defeats in the record book, however, the last third of the season saw us win most of our games lifting us from a very poor 9th place to a much more respectable 7th.
