2022/23 Isthmian Premier 7th

An established Isthmian Premier side who have seen year on year league postition improvement since they were promoted from the Isthmian South East in season 2018/19. They have enjoyed recent successful FA Cup runs, last season reaching the second round proper and this time around going out at Chesterfield in the first round proper. They are also still in the FA Trophy and have a home tie against Maidstone United to come. As a result they have played less league games than most and currently sit in 10th place on 17 points from 10 games. Cray Valley (PM) are in 3rd with 24 points from 13 games.

Top goalscorer in all competitions for the Hornets this season is experienced striker Chris Dickson on 7 followed by Daniel Ajakaiye and Ola Ogunwamide both on 5.

Todays match:
This should prove to be a tough test for Steve McKimm’s side. Despite having four players out with medium to long term injury he still has a strong squad to select from. In fact with competition for places evident there will be selection decisions to be made. It promises to be compelling watching, hope to see you there!
