Tonbridge Angels (A) - 29th July 2023

By Josh Cole

Another away trip for Margate as we face a journey to Tonbridge Angels at Longmead for our 7th pre-season friendly on Saturday afternoon. This game is also another DOUBLE HEADER with the Margate Women taking on the Tonbridge Angels Women at 6pm after the men’s game at 3pm.

Margate showed character and resilience to fightback from 2-0 down on Tuesday away against Corinthian as they won their third pre-season game of the schedule.

Manager Reece Prestedge said, it was a “tale of two halves” after his side fought back thanks to two goals from Steve Cawley, before Sam Blackman scored the winner.

Tonbridge Angels will be another tough test for the ‘Gate as they currently play in the Vanarama National League South. Finishing 10th last year, the Angels will be hoping for a play-off push this season under former Margate manager Jay Saunders who has been there since he left the ‘Gate in May 2022. Tonbridge have played eight pre-season games so far and their results include a 3-0 win against Rusthall, 1-0 win against Folkestone, 1-0 defeat to Ebbsfleet United, 1-1 draw with Stansfeld, 5-1 win over Charlton U21’s, 4-1 win over Hythe Town, 4-0 win against a Gillingham Xl and a 2-2 draw away at Scarborough last weekend.

Margate fans will see plenty of familiar faces on Saturday as the Angels squad include former ‘Gate keeper Jon Henley, defender Ben Swift and last year’s Blues Kent Senior Cup Final scorer Nathan Wood and striker Ruben Soares-Junior who featured in the second half of the season for the ‘Gate.

The Margate Supporters Club are laying on travel to Tonbridge with the bus leaving Hartsdown Park at 12pm noon costing £12.50 for non-supporter’s club members and £10 for members. To book your seat please email SEREPHINA2001@YAHOO.CO.UK
