THOSE WERE THE DAYS
17h September 2005
Isthmian (Ryman) League Premier Division
HRBFC 3 (Harper 66’, Henry-Hayden 78’, Fontana 90’) Folkestone Invicta 1 (Myall 50’)
Att; 292
HRBFC;-
Matt Lovett; Graham Harper, Steve Sodje (Luke Fontana, 62’), Matt Elverson, Rob Paris, Dean Wells, Alan Inns (Dudley Gardner, 67’), Elliott Godfrey, Lawrence Yaku (Jon Henry-Hayden, 80), Francis Quarm, Kelvin McIntosh.
Unused subs; Brian Connor, Barrie Matthews.
Folkestone Invicta;-
Keiron Mann; James Everitt, Paul Lamb, Adam Flanagan, John Guest, Scott Lindsey (Martin Chandler, 79’), Michael Everitt, Stuart Myall, James Dryden, Simon Glover (Joe Neilson, 75) Steve Norman.
Unused subs; Kevin Watson, Hurkey.
Folkestone Invicta came to Beveree some twenty places below the Beavers, however, for the first hour no-one could have guessed. Even having John Guest sent off just before half-time (a deliberate handball just outside the box) the visitors were looking comfortable. It was no real surprise that Invicta took the lead when, in the 50th minute, Stuart Myall headed them ahead. Fontana came on as a substitute and had an immediate effect on the game. Fontana had a goal disallowed for a debatable offside, but then Harper made a run down the right and fired in from an almost impossible angle. Fontana set up Henry-Hayden for Hampton’s second goal and then got on to the scoresheet himself. With no time left Fontana bundled the ball in after some disorganisation in the Folkestone defence. Hampton extended a club record of seven wins, including a cup win (the run came to an end at Fisher Athletic in the next game.
