Currently 10th in the Isthmian - South East Division (Step 4), but have only played 5 league games due to great FA Cup & Trophy runs.

Beaten Broadbridge Heath, Hartley Wintney, Carshalton Athletic and Chatham Town to get to this stage. Wins at Chatham & Carshalton were away and Chatham currently 2nd in Isthmian Premier. Also in the 1st Round of the FA Cup having beaten Carshalton and Enfield Town (also flying high in the Isthmian Premier) to land a plum away draw at Charlton Athletic this weekend. Certainly not an easy tie at all.

Draw has thrown up some real mouth watering games in the Southern section

Torquay v Yeovil
Slough v Farnborough
Dartford v Maidstone

Let’s hope it’s not another Lewis!

It's come up on my Facebook that we have been drawn away to Cray Valley. Well if you travel to where they play on the 18th then you are going to be disappointed as Cray Valley and Cray Valley Paper Mills are two different teams. Don't the press team double check the facts before posting to all and sundry???

Stop being pedantic, if you google ‘Cray Valley FC’ the correct one comes up.

Anyone else remember that line from Bambi?

If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.

Plus, there's no other team called Cray Valley in the FA Trophy...
