Folkestone Invicta keeper Jack Delo saves
Frannie Collin's penalty in the 0-0 draw against Tonbridge
Angels
All five Kent sides in the Ryman League Premier Division remain
winless and occupy five of the bottom seven places in the
early-season standings.
Folkestone Invicta bounced back from the 1-0
defeat at Sutton on Saturday with a dour goalless draw at home to
Tonbridge Angels on Bank Holiday Monday.
The Kent rivals - winless in three games apiece this season -
played out a dour game, but Angels, who were smarting after a third
straight defeat on Saturday, 2-1 at home to Harrow Borough, went
closest to taking the points.
Invicta keeper Jack Delo produced a fine double save to deny a
second-half spot-kick and Folkestone forward Paul Jones spurned two
golden chances when clean through as Invicta picked up their second
point in four games.
Maidstone United ended their run of three
straight defeats with a 1-1 draw in the derby at
Margate on Monday afternoon.
Following Saturday's 2-1 home defeat to Bury Town, and the
collapse of the proposed takeover by Lashings, the Stones responded
with their first point of the season at the fourth attempt against
Gate, who lost 2-1 at Lowestoft on Saturday.
For the third game in a row Maidstone failed to hold a lead,
going ahead through an unfortunate Laurence Ball own-goal on 64
minutes, only for Wayne WIlson to equalise six minutes from time to
secure Gate's second point in three games.
Cray Wanderers got off the mark at the third
time of asking with a 1-1 at Hastings United.
Laurent Hamici put the Wands ahead 12 minutes from the end but
the hosts drew level from the spot within five minutes to secure a
share of the points.

season? Have your say below.
