Congratulations to Sam Wilson (capt) and James Cummings who have both been selected for the London Reps squad for their matches against Middlesex on 26 February and Surrey on 1 March.
Next week’s League match against Bromley has been postponed due to Sam and James involvement in the London Reps match. However, the agreement to postpone does not extend to League Cup fixtures and so the lads will face Gravesend and Northfleet (away) in that competition. Match details to follow.

Belated congratulations to Bobby Folan who was selected for the trial matches for the Under 18 Kent Youth League Representative Squad on 7 February and 21 February. A third match has been added on 1 March but details of the squad have not yet been posted on the mitoo site.
I see that Fisher are still in the League having played their first match since 13 November today.
Cray Wanderer’s have withdrawn from the League, taking with them 3 valuable Welling United points. The situation at the bottom of the League is now even tighter with Greenwich Borough having lost only 1 point.

Unfortunately Bobby Folan was unable to attend the 'trial' match on the 7th, but Toby Johnson did. Hopefully Bobby will be at tomorrow's 'trial', but as yet I have not had confirmation of his attendance.
