As we move towards 2026, we have been asking our reporters for their highlights and indeed low lights of 2025. Next up is Mark Doig.

Best game attended 2025

For pure emotion, the FA Vase final when Whitstable Town defeated AFC Whyteleafe after extra time.

Best moment (either attended or on TV) 2025

VCD Athletic beating Fisher in the Southern Counties East Football League play-off final with a last minute goal.

Funniest moment (either attended or on TV) 2025

There has been nothing much to laugh about as a Welling United supporter in 2025

Worst moment (preferably attended) 2025

Welling United’s relegation.

Best player seen in the flesh 2025

No individual player has stood out head and shoulders above all others. Maybe Macauley Gillesphey for scoring the play-off winner at Wembley that took Charlton Athletic into the Sky Bet Championship.

Hope for Kent football 2026 (Hope for your team 2026)

A Kent side winning the FA Vase would be good, and Welling obtaining mid table obscurity ahead of another rebuild for next season.

How far will England go in the World Cup

I have no idea. I don’t make predictions and never will.
