May 8th, 1969 - On this Day

[JeremyJacobs]

Beat Folkestone Town 2-0 in the KSC Final. Unfortunately we were 4 down from the 1st leg at Cheriton. Had to see a bunch of players in red & white stripes lifting the KSC in front of the main stand at Hartsdown. That was 1 year after the Dover disaster in the same compo.

 

Mentally damaging stuff.

 

Thanks to Jeff Trice.
