After applying for Pfizers, Marlowe and St Lukes and being beaten or turned down by all, I had resigned to the fact that we were going to be playing on the usual, bobbly, slanted and badly looked after council pitches.

However, Mark Tyman of Strokes FC informed me that Ellington School might be available...

After some enquiries I was told we could have the ground, and we are now just waiting to hear if we get morning or afternoon games.

So lads, we have a home pitch which is Ellington School, off Pysons Road, Ramsgate.
