Sittingbourne boss Gary Abbott is
unhappy Saturday's friendly at Concord Rangers has been called off
– admits he found out by chance.
Club secretary John Pitts checked the
Canvey side’s fixtures and saw they were at home to Thurrock
instead.
Abbott (pictured) said: "I agreed
the game about two months ago but when I rang them up to ask what
was happening they said they had contacted us.
"We could have gone over there, found
two teams ready to play them and it would have been
embarrassing."
Bourne will train in the morning, with
Gillingham playing Croydon Athletic at Bourne Park in the
afternoon. Croydon’s Mayfield Round ground is unavailable.
Bourne were at home to Lordswood last
night (Thursday) and then visit Hythe on Tuesday.
Midfielder Ryan Johnson has signed and
Abbott hopes to sign youngster Steve Marshall.
He is also keen on a striker with
experience with Midlands club Hednesford. Abbott said: "He is
strong, holds the ball up well and is quick."
