M-A-T-T S-O-L-L-Y

If you've heard the song Tenderoni by Kele Okereke, you'll know that you can chant Matt Solly's name along to the chorus. Which is handy, because I only worked this out after he left under a bit of a cloud during Paul Foley's reign.

In good news, its been announced today on the official site that Matt Solly is back for next season. There couldn't be a clearer statement of intent from Kevin Watson than bringing Matt home. Kevin Watson is a new broom who understands what the club and the fans want. Solly is a favourite with the fans and players, a gifted player who came through the youth set up.

Also re-signing is Ryan Laker, last term's player of the year - another youth product, he's got a big future in the game and will surely be the first name on the team sheet after Solly next year.

Pre-season training has started, and we kick off on 23rd July, away to Erith Town. I'll probably miss most of the pre-season games, but will try and get along to some.

Our first official fixtures are announced this week, with the draws for the FA Cup and FA Trophy being announced this friday, and the league fixtures out a week after that. Suddenly, I can't believe the season ended over two months ago!

Come on the Chats!!!!
