MATCH PREVIEW / Cray Wanderers (H) - 26th December 2022
The Blues were defeated 2-1 by the ’U’s on the 20th December which ended a run of seven games unbeaten.
The Boxing Day clash at Hartsdown Park will be the reverse of last year’s festive football offering as the Blues won 3-2 at Hayes Lane to take all three points and extend the festive cheer. The ‘Gate also won the home fixture last season as they fought back from an early goal to win 2-1 thanks to Vance Bola and Dan Thompson six minutes from time.
Manager Andy Drury drafted in further reinforcements just before Christmas Day as Marvin Hershel joined on loan from Dartford, whilst Matty Macarthur also joined from Gillingham. Midfielder Troy Howard joined Deal Town on a one-month loan to regain fitness after suffering with an ankle injury.
Despite seeing red cards in the defeat to Hastings United both Peter Ojemen and Korrey Henry will be available for selection. Midfielder Ade Cole will miss the game as he serves the final game of his three match suspension.
This fixture will be the last at Hartsdown Park of 2022 and we hope as many of you can join us for the earlier kick-off time of 1pm.
If you can’t make it then you can keep right up to date on Twitter @margate_fc from 12:30pm.
