We welcome local rivals Hythe Town to Homelands in the league cup.

This Tuesday 8th October 2019 we host Hythe Town at Homelands in the Velocity Sports Trophy group stage, 7.45pm kick off.

This will be our 3rd match of the group stage and will look to continue our unbeaten streak having drawn our first match with Ramsgate and won our last versus Herne Bay.

In this group of 6 sides, we currently sit in second place after two games played, joint on points with Faversham Town who have a goal difference of +6 who sit top, and Ramsgate who are third with a goal difference of 0 after they drew both of their games. Though the league table isn't available to view online so potentially Ramsgate could be second with us third if the league see head-to-heads are priority over goal difference. We'll know more in the coming weeks! In fourth place is Hythe, fifth is Whitstable Town and sixth is currently Herne Bay.

We lost our first league game of the season on Saturday so our lads will be looking to bounce back tonight to prepare with a winning mentality going into our FA Trophy match with Witham Town this coming Saturday.

After a poor start to the season, Hythe have improved with new signings and are now on a small winning streak of two consecutive 2-0 victories over Herne Bay and Haywards Heath Town.

Come on down to Homelands on Tuesday and support the lads!
