Brilliant Blues Secure Impressive Three Points


Margate recorded a hard fought 3-1 win away at Three Bridges on Saturday as they continued their fine recent form.

New signing Enoch Muwonge was named on the bench as the Blues looked to extend their unbeaten run to seven games in the Isthmian South-East Division.

In the first three minutes of the match, Ibrahim Olutade stung the ‘keeper fingers, forcing him to tip a shot over the bar.

Chances came and went for The ‘Gate but no goals would be scored.. until.

In an otherwise scrappy half, the Blues took the lead in stoppage time of the first half as Ibrahim Olutade converted from the penalty spot to give the ‘Gate a 1-0 lead.

The hosts didn’t take long to get level in the second half though as the Blues backline failed to dela with a long throw into the box, allowing Hayden Velvick to pounce and level the scores.

That quick goal could have unsettled the ‘Gate, however they restored their lead just after the hour mark after Tom wary perfectly picked out Olutade and he laid a delightful ball off to Harrison Hatfull who fired the ‘Gate back in front.

Margate started to settle back into a rhythm in the second half, playing the football we have become accustomed to under Ben Greenhalgh this season and we got our due rewards right at the end of the game.

Despite the lead, Margate knew they would need another which eventually came in the 89th minute as Captain Harry Hudson ensured the points returned to Thanet!

Both sides were reduced to ten men in added on time as Josh Hallard received his second yellow card of the game as well as new signing Muwonge was shown a debut red card for two yellow cards, receiving his first for delaying the restart and then an apparent dive in the box.

Margate moved level on points with third placed Sittingbourne, albeit having played two more games.Click here for the full table.
