Every game is a huge one now for the Rooks and tomorrow we head to the seaside town of Margate as we look to keep the pressure on the top five. 

With the 2-1 home win against Potters Bar, we went back to winning ways in the league thanks to goals from Tom champion and a 25th league goal for Joe Taylor. That was following the midweek home defeat to Canvey Island which was just our third loss of 2023.

Last meetings
The last meeting with the Gate was a comfortable 2-0 win at the Pan thanks to a Razz Coleman De-Graft special from outside the box and a well-worked JT goal late on.

It was an eventful last trip to Hartsdown Park in 2021; after being 2-1 down at half-time, a Taylor Maloney hat-trick and an Ollie Tanner brace, gave the Rooks a 6-2 win.

Margate form
Margate this season sit a comfortable 16th in the league with only Billericay Town having a better defence than them in the bottom half of the table.

They also achieved an impressive 3-2 win at Hornchurch on Saturday, the only team with a better home record than us this season.

Safe travels to all the Rooks fans travelling to Hartsdown Park tomorrow. Come on you Rooks!!
