The Gaffer Says

Herne Bay make the short trip up the Thanet Way this Bank Holiday Monday for the first derby game of the season to take on Faversham Town at Salters Lane.

Ahead of the game, Herne Bay manager, Sam Denly, says, "It's always difficult there, they are a good side and they have ambitions to be top five again, they're there almost every season so we know it's going to be difficult. We're going well, we will have players back in and will have an almost fully fit squad. We won't go there with any fear. We won there last season and if we are on it on the day we are good enough to go and do it again. I've got a lot of respect for Faversham, especially Ray Turner and what he has achieved there".
