An early kick off, which also allowed for extra time and penalties, meant another double opportunity. Normally, games in the Arthur Dunn Cup are played at the school from where the Old Boys are derived, but if unavailable, games are played at the regular venue used for league matches, which is at Wrotham School, which is also home to Ide Hill of the Kent County League.

Both teams are in the Premier Division of the Arthurian League, this being 2nd versus second from bottom in the league table, although it was very hard to tell which way round this was, as there was little difference between the two sides. Salopians should have won it, but their No.9, having twice rounded the goalkeeper, managed to hit the side netting each time, with the goal gaping, before the inevitable goal came for Tonbridgians, courtesy of a far post header by the smallest player on the pitch.
