High-flying Dover are am<strong>on</strong>g the favourites for promoti<strong>on</strong> this seas<strong>on</strong>, as they were last. Nobody who<br />
went to the corresp<strong>on</strong>ding game last seas<strong>on</strong> will forget it in a hurry. Dover started sec<strong>on</strong>d in the table,<br />
<strong>Lewes</strong> sec<strong>on</strong>d bottom, and at first the scoreline followed the script, with Athletic leading 2-0 after 15<br />
minutes. Then, all hell let loose, and in fr<strong>on</strong>t of a delirio<str<strong>on</strong>g>us</str<strong>on</strong>g> and rather festive-spirited crowd the Rooks<br />
knocked in goal after goal. The final result was 6-2. That’ll take some beating.<br />
sat sept 4th: hampt<strong>on</strong> and richm<strong>on</strong>d<br />
Another cracking afterno<strong>on</strong> to look forward to at the Pan. It’s n<strong>on</strong>-league day, which means that, as<br />
England are playing and there are no Premiership and Champi<strong>on</strong>ship fixtures, fans are urged to go<br />
and watch their local n<strong>on</strong>-league team instead. This should significantly increase the gate, in a game<br />
against old rivals. <strong>Lewes</strong> w<strong>on</strong> their last game of the seas<strong>on</strong> at Hampt<strong>on</strong> in 2009/10, a result that ensured<br />
survival in the Blue Square South. ‘The Beavers’ (it’s true) are managed by former West Ham legend<br />
and England internati<strong>on</strong>al Alan Dev<strong>on</strong>shire. L<strong>on</strong>g-term <strong>Lewes</strong> fans will welcome back skilful midfielder<br />
