Help for an exiled Yeovil fan

[Guest]

Hello there Margate fans

 

I have a question: I have been trying to collect as much video footage as I can of the 2002-2003 season when we got promoted from the Conference. I know you probably don't want reminding of this but we beat you 2-1 right at the end of the season, and I know that game was filmed because the goals appeared on our end of season video.

 

Does anyone know where I might be able to track down a video of that game, or perhaps have one that I might be able to have a copy of? The game was played at the Crabble if that makes any difference.

 

Cheers and good luck for the rest of the season

Possibly, there are many videos of our conference seasons availible from the club shop, that's your best bet to contact them

Surprised to see a Yeovil fan ask Margate for help when you see what they put on their unofficial website

Better declare my prejudices here before we start. In the humble opinion of this author Margate is a festering boil tacked onto the [****!!****] of England. It's a seedy run-down tip with no discernable merit whatsoever. The best to be said in its favour is that it's not easy to get to. Last time there the main feature at the laughingly named Leisure Park was some scrap metal revolving globe thing that originated from the Vienna of the late thirties, and had the Nazi insignia badly scratched out. The food was 'British Seaside' at its worst, the pubs had as much atmosphere as the moon, and there was not a decent pint for miles. Those trapped in this Gormanghast of a town shuffled and snuffled disconsolately along the sea-front, eyes down-cast, as the life-force was sucked from their bloated bodies. Edvard Munch spent an afternoon in Margate before painting The Scream. Fortunately, we're going to Dover!

Thankyou so much for a valuable and constructive posting above.

 

Best wishes to Yeovil- there is absolutely no reason why in time Margate cannot emulate Yeovil.

 

Maybe ex-Dover player Colin Miles should come back to Kent, play at left back,be the Gate's 'big signing' and be a talisman to lead us into the conference just as JK did 5 seasons ago
