A Margate Box

Dartford's Oliver Box signs on loan at Margate


Margate have announced the loan signing of Dartford midfielder Oliver 'Olly' Box, and gave him his debut with three minutes to go in their win over Chatham Town in Pitching In Isthmian Premier last night.

Olly played regularly for the senior Darts side in County Cup matches last season, but also spent some of last season on our patch, playing on loan for Corinthian in Pitching In Isthmian South East. He made thirty two appearances for the Hoops, and helped out with four goals.

He signed first team forms for the Darts in the summer, and it's unsurprising he has arrived at the Gate, since Gate Assistant/Player boss Ben Greenhalgh has been coaching him at Princes Park.
