A Kentish Fright Night!

Tonight our clubs have matches in (deep breath) The FA Trophy, Bostik Premier Division, Bostik North Division, Bostik South Division, Essex County Cup, Sussex Senior Cup, Hertfordshire County Cup, Surrey County Cup, Velocity Trophy and Women's Cup sponsored by goodmove.co.uk. You can find a full list here.

Notably, however, it being Halloween after all, the scary folk of Kent (who for some reason aren't having a County Cup competition this evening) are looking to frighten the children- and the adults. Margate FC, who entertain Met Police in a league match, are pulling out all of the stops with ...' a face painter... a mini kid's disco...apple bobbing and an arts and craft area for younger fans... a fancy dress Halloween half-time penalty shoot out...a prize draw to win a signed Chris Sessegnon canvas by spotting the hidden pumpkins in the programme...and a free pint or soft drink for anyone in Halloween Fancy Dress (although you have to have made a proper effort, not just have failed to wash the tomato ketchup off your chin after eating chips). By the way, there is no suggestion here that Chris Sessegnon is at all frightening.

Folkestone Invicta will give free entry- and a treat- to any child who yells "Trick or Treat" at the turnstile operators on the way in, and the child judged to have the scariest fancy dress outfit will be allowed to stand in the back of the home net and frighten the Leiston forwards- no, that's not right, they'll win a mascot package for a future home match! Bar Invicta will have a face painter to create little (and big) zombies and the Seasider Tea Bar will be serving Spooky Spider Legs and Nuggets of Doooom, named after the Indiana Jones film that Spielberg mercifully forgot to make.

Sadly, there is no confirmation that Ari the Great Dane is going to come as Scooby-Doo!

So there you have it. Be there or be...scared!
