Premier Division – Saturday 28th August
The 8 games today produced 30 goals and some fantastic entertainment as our Clubs continued to jockey for position in this early part of the 2021/22 Premier Division Season.
A crowd of 734 witnessed a classic at Holm Park, just like we knew it would as Sheppey United hosted title rivals Chatham Town.
It was the Chats that went ahead thanks to an early Jack Evans penalty and the lead doubled before the break when Charlie Dickens came up with a novel finish.
In the second half Sheppey came roaring back and goals from Jack Midson and Ben Wilson levelled the game before Michael Hagan smashed home in the 87th minute to earn the ‘Ites’ a massive 3 points.
Kennington v Glebe gave us another beauty with the visitors getting off to the perfect start when Charlie Penny netted in the first 20 seconds.
Helge Orome soon made it 2-0 to Glebe before Robbie Dolan pulled one back and Liam Middleton equalised prior to half time.
New Glebe goalkeeper George Kamurasi kept his side in the game on debut and with the point earned the Foxes remain at the top of the table.
Unfortunately the Erith & Belvedere v Tunbridge Wells game was postponed for Covid reasons.
Tower Hamlets picked up SCEFL win number one after a 3-0 success at Hollands & Blair.
Tami Ogunnowo, Harrison Abu and Wale Odedoyin got the goals for Hamlet who will next visit Fisher on Bank Holiday Monday.
Fisher warmed up for that game with a 1-1 draw at Crowborough Athletic while Punjab United and Rusthall also finished all-square at 2-2.
Holmesdale occupy a top 4 spot after some smart finishing earned them a 3-1 win at home to Bearsted.
Owen Punselie claimed an early double for the Dale, Harrison Hatfull pulled one back but Nathan Palmer wrapped the game up with 10 minute to play to confirm his teams impressive start to the season.
