Whitstable whitewashed by Whitehawk
Whitstable Town FC received a 5-0 drubbing at the hands of visiting team Whitehawk at the weekend. Manager Justin Luchford has apologised to fans, saying "you deserve better" and promising to work hard to avoid a repeat performance. Whitstable now sit in precarious 20th place out of 21 in the Ryman League Division One South. The next match is away to Worthing next Saturday. -
Luchford looks to Town's future
ALTHOUGH they haven't played since January 28, and have taken a healthy four points from their last two games, Whitstable will go into Saturday's home match against Whitehawk sitting second from bottom of Division One South. That's because all results against Croydon Athletic, who have resigned from the league, have now been scrubbed, and that includes Town's 4-1 home win against them back in November. It's a development that doesn't... -
We're going in right direction
SATURDAY'S 0-0 draw at home to Crawley Down made it two consecutive games unbeaten for Whitstable and two clean sheets to go with them. But although it was the first time since the opening week of the season that the Oystermen have gone two games without losing, manager Justin Luchford isn't getting too carried away just yet. "It's perhaps a bit early to talk about turning the corner," he said, after his side had held... -

Great Scott! Nicky gives Swans a boost
SWAN and Harlequin are up to third in the Premier Division courtesy of Sunday's 5-3 victory away at lowly Monument Eagles. Nicky Scott bagged a hat-trick for the Swans with Bob Beazleigh and Matt Hennessy also in the goals. In the only other top flight game of the day, Micky Hayley, Sam Staunton and Barnaby Loader guided AFC Royals to a 3-2 win away at Broomfield Crusaders, who continue to struggle. Bob Hitchcock scored both... -
Sense of purpose goes missing as sorry Blues get battered
Cranbrook 37 Whitstable 0 By Bob Tomlinson THE adverse effects of a four week break were clear to see in this Whitstable performance. Cranbrook, who had suffered a heavy defeat just a week before, scored six unanswered tries, completely outplaying the visitors. Victory for the home side was made easier by a very disappointing Blues' display. There seemed to be little sign of any kind of teamwork or sense of purpose needed to...

Whitstable Town smiling after yesterday's win
Whitstable FC came away smiling from Sittingbourne yesterday after their first away win of the season. It was just the one goal (a penalty) but enough to boost the beleagured team's confidence that they can raise themselves up the table from their current lowly 19th position. There were five changes in the side this week, and observers say the players looked in control of the match. -
Luchford: I know heat is on
TOWN Boss Justin Luchford remains confident that he can turn Whitstable's fortunes around, despite seeing his side slip to their ninth loss in 12 games since he took charge. But after Saturday's 4-2 home defeat to Hythe Town, the Belmont gaffer admitted he's starting to feel the heat. He said: "Of course there's pressure. I'd be an idiot if I said I didn't feel it. "My record since I've been at the club has been pretty... -

Injuries make matches even tougher for Whitstable
Injuries could not have come at a worse time for Whitstable Town FC, as they face the second of two matches against superior teams within a few days. With half a dozen players below par, Town manager Justin Luchford had to use all his substitutes in the match at Maidstone United at the weekend, and keep a couple of 'walking wounded' on the pitch. It was expected to be a tough contest anyway, and in the circumstances the 4-0 scoreline... -
Whitstable Town beaten by Worthing
Here's a quick catch-up on the Whitstable Town football front: The first team still sits 19th out of 22 in the Ryman League Division One South, their latest conquerors being Worthing who scored three goals to Whitstable's two earlier this week. Town play Whyteleaf tomorrow at home at the Belmont, kick-off 3pm, and are away to Burgess Hill next weekend. Both these opponents are also in the bottom third of the division on results so far....
