Whitstable Town 2 vs Lordswood 1 'Town extend unbeaten run' PDF Print E-mail
Mark Wyver reports for WTFC: Picture; scorer of the first goal Andy Constable: Whitstable Town travelled to Lordswood looking to keep their unbeaten Kent League record intact. The league leaders introduced new signing from Gravesend & Northfleet John Akinde and he came into the side for the injured Steve Marshall. Andy Constable and Jake Gess also returned to the starting line up at the expense of Jimmy Strouts(unavailable) and Marlon Button who dropped to the bench.
On a bumpy surface the unbeaten leaders started in an explosive mode with Stuart King and Andy Constable both firing wide from good positions. With Marc Seager choosing to play three forwards the Lordswood defence were under constant pressure and they finally cracked on 32 minutes.
 
After receiving the ball on the right hand side the returning Constable hit a sweet right foot shot which beat Lordswood keeper Gavin Hopper on his near post. The goal was Constable's 11th goal of the season and put the Oystermen 1-0 up.
 
LordsW_v_W_043.jpg AC: a man clearly enjoying his football!The home side who included former Town player Stuart Harrison in their line up looked lively going forward with Nick Smith always a threat. Kevin Fewell however had a quite first half without really being extended. HT 0-1
 
With only two minutes played of the second half young striker Stuart King put Whitstable further ahead when he beat Hopper from close range. The former Herne Bay striker is now the clubs leading goalscorer with thirteen. Home custodian Hopper who is amongst the best keepers in the Kent League had another good game and thwarted the visiting attackers on numerous occasions with one from King coming out of the top drawer.
 
The Reds introduced Alex Hossick into the fray for the hard working Marcos Perona as they looked to tighten things up. Lordswood under the vocal Paul Piggott to their credit never gave up and were rewarded in the 76th minute when Sean Hetterley beat Fewell to give the Medway based side the hope of getting something from the game.
 
Despite a couple of scares the back four of Gary Sayer, Jackson Ohakam, Rob Thomas and Tom Parker held firm and Whitstable remain on course for  the Kent League Championship. Marc Seager takes his side to Deal on tuesday night looking to extend their lead at the top so make sure you are there.
