The season’s end brought me to Potyn’s Field to watch Snodland Town play their final home game of the season against VCD Athletic. Snodland Town have had a disappointing final third of the season, seeing their play-off hopes fade away, due to dropped points in February and March, which have left them 12 points off…

The Jockey Farm Stadium…
