Whitstable Town and Hythe Town played out a typical end of season game with both sides having nothing but pride to play for. Whitstable were the better team but in reality both sides had their minds else ware.

The game took a while to get going & Whitstable had the first half chance of the game in the 13th minute when a corner to the back post found Rob Gillman whose header was punched clear by George Kamurasi but only to Connor Sanders & his hooked shot went over bar.

Eight minutes later Harry Stannard received the ball from a throw in went forward & went through one challenge & once in the area his shot was saved by Kamurasi, another chance came 5 minutes later when James Morrish tried his luck from 30 yards forcing Kamurasi to push it around the post.

Hythe finally had a shot on target in the 34th minute when Kieron Campbell on the link jinked in & his shot from 18 yards was saved by Dan Eason. Half time arrived & the 307 supporters were hoping for better action in the second half.

The second half was only two minutes old Tom Carlton got to the by-line & crossed to the back post where Sid Sollis was & his header came back of the near post.

A minute later it was Whitstable’s turn to hit the post when Stephen Smith passed to Stannard & his shot from 12 yards hit the post.

In the 50th minute Campbell who seemed to be the only threat to Whitstable ran forward 40 yards & his shot was saved by Eason.

Two minutes later a ball into the area saw Tom Bryant stretching but his shot came back of the post. In the 63rd minute a ball into the area was flicked on by Smith for Ricky Freeman who turned & saw his volley go agonisingly past the post.

Three minutes later Tom Carlton forced Eason to push his shot out. In the 78th minute Sanders was sent off for a reckless challenge on Ryan Palmer. Hythe now had a man advantage but apart from Mitchell Dickenson’s header from a free kick which went over the bar they did not trouble Eason.

The last chance of the game came in the second minute off added on time when Taylor Fisher’s free kick to the back post found substitute Nick Treadwell & his downward header bounced over the bar. The final whistle went & both teams will probably be satisfied with a point.
