All aboard the Foley train!

Calling at thrashing, depressingly predictable defeat, and hopefully, unexpected salvation and hope at Whitstable. I've been meaning to blog for the last week and a bit, but just haven't known what to put. Firstly, the bad news. We're now in the relegation zone. Chatham lost 6-1 at home to Whitehawk on Saturday 26th March. That didn't go down well. Then, midweek, Corinthian Casuals won their last game in hand to go two points clear of us. Then, on Saturday just gone, we played at home to Horsham YMCA. The YM hadn't won away all year. They'd let in 108 goals already. That's three a game people. They were of course going to win, and that they did, one nil. Corinthian Casuals beat play off chasing Ramsgate to run away from us, something that looked a bit unlikely just a month ago. Fortunately, Whitstable Town seem to be doing a good job of making a mess of things too - on the weekend we were beaten 6-1 at home, they lost 6-0 at home to Met Police. They lost 3-0 at Leatherhead on Saturday. And this Saturday, we travel to their Belmont Road ground for what is shaping up to be the most important game for Chatham in years. Defeat could leave us six points off safety with four to play, with no wins in 15 matches. Its not the time to point fingers about the undoubted mess we're in. What we must do is get behind the lads on Saturday, but anything less than an enthusiastic, committed performance from anyone will be frowned upon much so. There's too much at stake. It promises to be dramatic. Let's hope there's no twist in the tale, like a bad nil-all draw. That would probably take the biscuit.
