City 1 Erith & Belvedere 5
Canterbury City 1 Erith and Belvedere 5 A crushing home defeat for City as their season threatens to fizzle out after such a promising start. An evenly matched first half saw the sides go in at 1-1, but the visitors had complete control in the second, scoring four goals without reply to earn an emphatic win. There was not much to chose between the teams early on. Andy Constable for E&B ... read more
Fisher 0 City 2
City got back to winning ways today defeating Fisher by two goals without reply in a fast paced, sometimes frenetic match. A fairly even first half saw no goals at the break, but following a delayed re-start, after problems with the floodlights, City dominated the second. It was pretty much one way traffic, with City missing several opportunities before finally scoring twice in four minutes after ... read more
City 2 Herne Bay 3
City fell to a superb injury time strike from Bay’s Byron Walker to lose by the odd goal in five in an exciting game at Winches Field today. Having twice come from behind to level, they looked to have done enough to earn at least a share of the points, but Bay finished the stronger to snatch all three. It was a comparatively sedate and pedestrian first half that was scoreless at the break, ... read more
Deal Town 1 City 0
City unluckily ended 2011 in defeat after falling to a late Jordan Miller winner at Deal Town today. They were forced to play almost the entire match with just ten players after Macauley Murray was sent off in just the second minute for a tackle that the referee obviously thought was far worse than many others did. City were on the back foot right from the word go with Murray’s sending ... read more
Sevenoaks Town 3 City 3
  An incident packed match ended all square as the two teams shared six goals at Mill Lane today. A hard fought game that Sevenoaks led 2-0 at the break saw a spirited fightback from City in the second-half firstly, to level at 2-2 and then again at 3-3.   It was a depleted City side that took to the pitch being able to name just Bobby Powell on the bench, with Scott Punton filling ... read more
City 1 Cray Valley 2
City bowed out of the Kent Senior Trophy at the first hurdle after this home defeat to Cray Valley. Despite taking the lead and missing chances to win the game, the visitors eventually won through in a tight contest. Returning at right back was Sam Baker, with Michael Scott moving to centre-half which allowed Joe Kennett to move forward into midfield. City started brightly enough and could ... read more
Beckenham Town 3 City 1
A hugely disappointing performance from City who were completely out played and out manoeuvred in what was undoubtedly, their least impressive performance of the season so far. There was little positive to take from the game either, apart maybe, from some distant signs of increased effort in a poor second half that meant it was only marginally better than an even poorer first!   In ... read more
Erith & Belvedere 2 City 3
City returned to league action this weekend following their cup exploits over the last couple of weeks. Another roller coaster game, firstly saw City get themselves into a dominant position and then almost fritter away their one man and three goal advantage as the home side nearly staged a dramatic fightback. First chance of the game fell to City on three minutes. A long throw from Macauley ... read more
City 2 Fisher 5 (aet)
City bowed out of the Kent Premier League Cup at the first hurdle as they fell to an extra time 11-8 aggregate defeat at home to Fisher. They were within a couple of minutes of victory in normal time before Fisher snatched a dramatic equaliser. However, they will justifiably point to an incident midway through the second half as the decisive one as once again a match referee controversially ... read more
Fisher 6 City 6
Well, where to begin! Twelve goals plus two disallowed, both keepers pulling off goal stopping saves within a minute of each other, then major controversy and finally sportsmanship, rarely seen on a football pitch. This was a match which should be long remembered by both clubs’ players, officials and supporters who were privileged and lucky enough to be there. City started with debuts ... read more
City 1 Holmesdale 1
City will no doubt consider this was two points dropped, as although Holmesdale played their full part in a tough encounter, City squandered several good chances to grab a second goal and ultimately a winner. Starting with three at the back and with Bobby Powell up front with Stacey Davies, City got off to a great start, taking the lead in the sixth minute, but were unable to finish off the ... read more
City 5 Greenwich Borough 0
For most part, it was a much tougher game than the score line suggests for City today. A fabulous save from Connor Quinn at 2-0 slammed the door shut on the visitors finding any way back into the match and with City almost immediately making it 3-0 and followed by a loss of discipline from Greenwich, leading to two red cards, City thereafter were able to cruise to the win. City started ... read more
Corinthian 2 City 1
It was an unhappy return to Gay Dawn Farm today as City wilted in nearly thirty degrees of glaring sunshine to go down 1-2 at Corinthians. A far too easy goal conceded right after half time gave the home side a winning lead and this time there was to be no late, great escape. Joe Kennet returned to the side replacing Sam Baker in defence and new signing Stacey Davies started on the bench. The ... read more
City 2 Woodstock Sports 1
Another late, late show for City tonight, as two goals in the last five minutes sealed another dramatic win. A game that saw lots of effort but very little end product from either side, burst into life in the final few minutes to see City smash and grab all three points. Changes in both full back positions for City saw Jake Marsh and Scott Punton standing in and excelling in their unfamiliar ... read more
Holmesdale 2 City 3
Another victory for City today as they twice came from behind to beat Holmesdale by the odd goal in five, snatching the winner deep into stoppage time. A match that just about meandered along for an hour only really sparked into life seemingly when City realised they had a wrong to right and then to add insult to injury, needed to make amends for a sloppily given away goal. Four changes from ... read more
City 3 Deal Town 2
What a difference a few days make as a different City from Saturday, turned up tonight to beat Deal Town 3-2 in a thrilling match at the Safety Net Stadium. An exciting, fast and furious game with both sides fully committed saw City take the three points despite a late, mini revival from the visitors.   Early exchanges were a perfect indicator of the game to come. Both sides were straight ... read more
VCD Athletic 2 City 1
An uninspiring and patchy performance from both sides resulted in a disappointing game and a defeat for City. Their opponents hardly did enough to earn the victory, creating little and resorting to some excessive time wasting as early as the first half as well as making the best of some imaginary challenges. For their part, City got off to a sleepy start and failed to really get going until the ... read more
Greenwich Borough 1 City 2
City took full advantage of many of their rivals playing in the F A Cup today, to win a scrappy match and find themselves, for the moment at least, top of the league. It wasn’t pretty, but given the stifling heat it was probably no real surprise that the match lacked tempo throughout and that fluent play and clear chances were at a premium for both sides. Apart from an early Renford ... read more
City 1 Herne Bay 2
City learned the hard way today that, that as has already been said – if you miss your chances in this league, your opponents will punish you and that is exactly what happened today. Two penalty misses against a team like Herne Bay and you can really have no grumbles about being beaten. The game got off to a flier when in the third minute Renford Tenyue flew down the right wing, cut ... read more
City 3 - Sevenoaks 1 - Match Report
City secured their third win of the season with this victory at home to Sevenoaks today, despite playing at times some very neat and tidy passing football, the visitors had no answer to the strength of City and in particular to the speed and skill of Renford Tenyue. Tenyue’s Man of the Match performance saw him score a couple and make the other before going off to a big ovation from ... read more
Cray Valley PM 1 Canterbury City 4
After their midweek defeat when City were left to rue missed opportunities in front of goal, they may well be grateful that the same fete befell their opponents today. A three goal margin may look convincing but City were beneficiaries of some wayward and it has to be said, unlucky finishing by Cray Valley today. Several times the home side struck the woodwork and twice Sam Baker had to clear ... read more
Woodstock Sports 4 Canterbury City 1
It’s won one and lost one for City so far as a largely frustrating night at Woodstock Sports ended in a 1-4 defeat. City were left to rue missed chances in the first half which should have seen them go into the break ahead and an unfortunate own goal right after the restart that gave the home side the advantage that they never looked likely to let slip. City should take heart though that ... read more
Canterbury City 1 - Lordswood 0
City started their return to the Kent Premier League with a single goal victory at home to Lordswood today. They started the game in a hurry, dominated the first half and got the killer goal in the second, which saw a more even contest.   An immediate show of intent right from the visitor’s kick-off, saw man-of-the-match Macauley Murray charge down the ball and instigate a move ... read more
