Whitstable Town finally lost their unbeaten Kent League run after a late 1-0

by Mark Wyver: Whitstable Town finally lost their unbeaten Kent League run after a late 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Greenwich Borough. After the midweek Kent League Cup success at Hythe Town the Oystermen went into the game minus top goalscorer Stuart King who recieved a knee injury during that game. On loan striker John Akinde came into the front line to partner Andy Constable.   On a bitterly cold day Whitstable were meeting their South London opponents for the fifth time this season. A league game along with a Kent Senior Trophy tie and two Kent League Cup group matches meant that Marc Seager and his opposite opponent Phil Miles had a good idea about each others sides.   The Reds started the game in an attacking mode with Marcos Perona putting in some good balls into the Boro' area. However Constable and Akinde failed to really test Michael Holder in the Boro' goal.   The best attacking options for Greebwich Borough were down the flanks with full backs Peter Smith and Danny Tipple both looking dangerous on their forays forward.   After a goalless first half the game resumed in a swirling wind and rain with both sets of supporters in good voice. Town lost Marlon Button with an injury to be replaced by Micky Lane while Chris Hubbard replaced Smith for the away side.   Neither side looked like they were going to break the deadlock until Jake Gess was adjudged to have commited a foul in the penalty area. The 89th minute spot kick from Meshach Nugent beat Kevin Fewell and amid scenes of jubilation,  Greenwich Borough had managed to take three points back to South East London.   WHITSTABLE TOWN 1.
