DATE SET FOR KSC CRABBLE DERBY

Dover Athletic will play their Hoverspeed Stadium tenants Margate on Tuesday 23rd March (7:45pm KO) in the semi-finals of the Kent Senior Cup.

It is the first competitive meeting between the two East Kent rivals since the Whites’ relegation from the Conference two years ago.

Dover hold the upper hand in recent meetings between the two sides, having taken four points from the two Conference encounters in 2001/02, with Jimmy Aggrey’s Boxing Day strike at Hartsdown Park the only goal in the two fixtures.

Athletic also won the last cup tie between the sides with goals from Steve Norman and Matt Carruthers earning a 2-1 extra-time victory for the Whites in the 2000/01 Kent Senior Cup Second Round.
