Faversham Town - 2016/17 season

[FAV Army]

Right...

I think it's clear that everyone is still hurting from Saturday.

It is hard to get over a big defeat like that, especially when big decisions (incorrectly) go ahead us.

And it's even harder to get over it when it happens at the end of the season when you have to wait an eternity to put things right.

But I thought I would start this thread to try to move on and start the healing process.

Leicester City have just won the Premier League!

I repeat - LEICESTER CITY have just won the Premier League.

If that can happen, I see absolutely no reason why we can't win the league next season!

Of course, teams will come back stronger but we have a strong nucleus of our young squad, which will only get better.

We also have a few under-21 players that are more than good enough to move up to first-team level.

Let's BELIEVE!

If Folkestone - a team we beat twice and drew once with this season - can do, why can't we?!

Don't get mad, get even.

P.S. I can't wait to be back supporting the lads next season.

FAV Army!

Just want to say that this is my first season as a Lilywhite supporter and I am incredibly grateful and proud to be one. I came to Salters Lane from the States while in the UK on a University project. The football and the tight knit family of supporters was unparalleled to anything we have here in the US.

A very gracious thank you to the team and management for a great season. I was riveted to my refresh button every weekend.

To the supporters who post reports, videos and pictures on social media (especially this forum), thank you for making the distance between Boston and Salters Lane feel a little shorter.

A raised pint to this season...Another raised pint to next season...and I'll save the last raised pint for when I see some of you next season.

Cheers

Being a supporter from so far away (only getting to a live game once a year), I am indebted

Good to read your post stateside.  Yes, we love our club too so it's nice to hear from a new recruit to our cause.
Next time you can make it to the "lane" come and introduce yourself to the Halfway Line shouty men.
You know where we are and you should be able to hear us! lol

And I like this post also.

It tells a story. One that I can very much empathise with.

About 7 years ago, and we're (FTFC) still in the Kent League, I was invited by
a work colleague (Herne Bay supporter) who convinced me to pop along to
Salters Lane and watch Faversham Town vs Herne Bay in a cup match.
We lost I recall, but that was my first introduction to non-league and more specifically
FTFC. Despite the loss, it seemed a very, very fine place to be on a Saturday afternoon. Needless
to say, I've been hooked ever since.

So, very presumptious of me I know, but my first experience of FTFC seems to be similar
to statesidelilywhite's.
So, a raised pint to you statesidelilywhite. We go again next season.

And the following season, really look forward to sharing a beer with you in the clubhouse. The beers
are on me. Look forward to it.

My son-in-law is also a "statesidelilywhite", but he's ex-US Army from Michigan, now living/working in Germany. When he has a spare weekend during the season we always try to turn up to a home game.

The FA have provisionally placed Greenwich Borough in Isthmian South for next season, not North as expected. Someone told me their weekly wage bill. It'll knock your hat off.
