Faversham Town visit the ARS tomorrow and I suspect that, to a man, they will relish the opportunity to play the part of pantomime villain in front of the frenzied, passionate faithful in the Garenne. They're big and ugly and struggle to stay on their feet, except for when they're in the referee's face.
They certainly know where the back of the net is though, having scored 89 goals in the league so far this season. Well placed to finish 2nd behind Burgess Hill, they are not infallible however. Their last 6 matches have seen 3 wins and 3 losses, the defeats being to Whitstable, Hythe and Corinthian Casuals.
When we lost 3-0 in the away fixture we had a scratch squad and were (very) low on numbers. In the circumstances the performance overall was a lot better than the scoreline suggested. The aquad for tomorrow's match is a little bit different from back then:-
Tardif, Cochrane, Strawbridge, Dodd, Winch (J), Mackay, Steel, Mahon (K), Mahon (L), Black, Hutton, Loaring, Rihoy, Heaume, Allen, McGrath.
Expect a clash of styles and a playing field, on paper at least, a lot leveller than it was in September.
Keep it Green
Allez les Verts!!
