The closure of A257 running past us for 3 mnths from 24 July has been cancelled.
Common sense reigns! The idiots who dreamt up & then agreed this road closure-the devolopers at old barracks & agreed by Kent CC have backed down. Thanks Cllrs Alex Ricketts (Friars) & Mike Sole
And the 2023-24 season is off with an intra club friendly 2-1 win over @chc_msqui - good prep for having been promoted to South East Invicta 7. Our goals by John Boy Aikin and @SmelyNerfherder Tom Parkin. Squires goal by Teddy Ridings.
Easter Sunday 🐣 sees the highest place men’s side in their league…..the Friars.
These athletes finished 2nd in the South East Mens Divison 8 Invicta
Pictured here with their end of season game v ‘The 90/00’s Griffins’
Rather Lucky 1-0 win v @SittingbourneHC 5. Excellent hard fought game but John Aikin - who else - with an exhibition back flip again hit the clincher with 8 minutes to go. Paul Donovan of @kentsportsimage in goal was MOM. Thankyou Sityingbourne /@OldBordenianHC
Great scoreboard at Holcombe tells story of a tough game against Holcombe Heroes. 2 goals to John Aikin and one to Nirpal Saraon Thankyou to @HolcombeHC and their umpires.
Well we got to the other side and won 7-0 in friendly v Burnt Ash 7 @BurntAshHC . Thank you for a very friendly game, your 2 umpires who weathered the constant driving rain & Burnt Ash GK who kept for us. Friars Scorers - John Aikin (4), Adam McHale (2) and skipper Tony Jones (1)
HNY to every one of our 173 followers. One of our top aims is not to get promoted or relegated. We have found our life-work-playing balance in Invicta SE div 8 where we happily reside in a languid state and have done so for a dozen years or more https://t.co/DJK5ABZiPV
In all fairness, we haven't actually mentioned this yet in December...
ℹ️ Mr. Rees at Bysing Wood Primary School self-registered on the @chance2shine portal earlier this year, our coach (Jamie) got in touch, and the rest as they say is... Award Winning.
Tough competitive 2-1 win away @OldBordenianHC 5. Rain and wind in the mix for both teams. Goals by Jonny Devereux and Jon Aikin. Great defensive games from Simon Triggs @triggs_simon and Jamie Harris. @jamie4cricket
