Sandwiched between the Dorking Wanderers FA Cup replay and the Tunbridge Wells league game at home on Bank Holiday Monday is a trip to Greatness Park.
Great game to have next.
Following our midweek game and the unfortunate result, you could not ask for a better game, if you're a player that is who wants to show his pride, than to have to go and play a team in form and who have won 3 out of 3 league games.
They, of course, will be buzzing, not just because of the 3 out of 3, but they beat our next opponents, Tunbridge Wells, 2-1 at home on Wednesday night.
However, the game was memorable for the finish as the Oaks seemed to be heading for a 1-0 win, given to them by a 21st minute Andy Walker strike but Tunbridge Wells equalised deep into added on time when Perry Spackman hit a 25 yard wonder strike in to the Oaks net to make it 1-1.
The Wells were celebrating getting a point but Sevenoaks Town had other ideas and went up the other end one last time and won the game in the 90+4 minute when Miles Cornwell scored. On such things does success and failure rest.
Therefore, the Oaks go unbeaten in the league and keep a 100% record whilst Tunbridge Wells go home deflated and lose their 100% tag. We'll see if this defeat has any effect on them when they visit us on Bank Holiday Monday.
The main thing about our game on Saturday though is not what Sevenoaks Town do or don't do, it's about what our players do and how they react as a group to a disappointing performance and result.
It's important to remember in any team game, you win as a team and you lose as a team because each player is only a cog in the overall machine and it takes all the parts to work well together if the machine is to work correctly.
