Alex Laking Memorial Cup

2nd Round

 Tankerton FC 1 Herne Bay Harriers 8

 

This was a game on paper we should have won convincingly as Tankerton were bottom of the 4th Division without a win.

We started strongly and dominated the match from the outset, although Tankerton battled and worked hard.

We scored at regular intervals and this game enabled some of the squad players to have a deserved run out and for us to try different tactics.

Some of the football was a good standard but again our defending was indifferent, and we rode our luck a little, as a better side would have capitalised.

It was pleasing that Tyler, making only his second appearance, was able to get on the score sheet, and hopefully that will give him confidence going forward.

A good result and a comfortable game, but we need to continue progressing our performances.

Scorers: Billy Redford 2, Tom Barton 2, Tyler Healey 2, Zack Wakerly, Oliver Hudson
