It was an easy twenty minute drive north from Wrotham School. This was a ground I had been to before, but on that occasion I never got to see a match, as the league website had the incorrect kick off time advertised, being an hour and a quarter later than they were showing, so I went elsewhere, rather than hang around.

Fleetdown looked to be in danger of finishing in a relegation place a couple of months back, but they have steadily picked up points to edge towards mid table, whilst Peckham looked to be challenging for the title, but a dip in form has seen them slip to sixth place in the league table, although they do have games in hand, but no longer look like doing any better than managing third place.

The match turned in a two minute spell just before the hour mark. Peckham missed a penalty, fired high over the crossbar, with Fleetdown regaining the lead a couple of minutes later.
