A performance from Tonbridge's reserve side that left me mystified as to their display in the Kent Intermediate Final against Faversham. Admittedly Faversham looked a decent side, whilst Welling, on this particular evening, were quite woeful.

But let's not take anything away from Tonbridge as, in a higher profile game, Tom Pearson would have taken all the plaudits for his four-goal haul, but a sparkling individual performance from Jermeille Johnson really caught the eye. At the back 17-year-old James Philpott confirmed all the good reports I have heard with an solid game (and a goal for good measure).

Onwards to another Final, against Metropolitan Police with date and venue to be confirmed and an opportunity to redeem that Faversham disappointment.
