Herne Bay boss Simon Halsey has heaped
the pressure on Faversham ahead of their Ryman
League, Division 1 South derby on Saturday.
Despite the sides being separated by
just oe place and one point ahead of the 3pm kick-off at Winch’s
Field, Halsey insisted: "They are the favourites."

the established Ryman League team, they have been there for three
years, we are the newbies in our first year. It’s their game
to win."
He played down the significance of the
meeting with a side which boasts former Bay men Luke Harvey, Toby
Ashmore, Dan Lawrence, Darren Marsden and Jamie Maxted.
He said: "It doesn’t matter to me
whether we are playing Faversham, Chipstead, Merstham or anyone –
it’s just another big game against a side around us in the table.We
are fully-fit and raring to go."
