A dramatic final weekend in the National League South, and Dover have stayed up by the skin of their teeth - boss Mitch Brundle discusses the day and how things have to get better next season at Crabble. There was promotion joy for Phoenix Sports thanks to a last-gasp Ryan Hayes penalty and manager Steve O'Boyle talks us through their win at VCD and why he feels it was so important to get out of the SCEFL at the first attempt. Play-off disappointment, though, for Hythe Town - boss Steve Watt discusses their narrow Isthmian League South East final defeat at Whitehawk. Lydd Town have moved up to Step 5 after their promotion play-off success and their manager Mickey Doyle looks back at the win over Tooting Bec, why home advantage was so important and his hopes that the FA don't move them to another league. We look ahead to the rest of the play-offs and the Kent Senior Cup final, and there's all the usual chat and nonsense, including dog show previews, Super Mario Brothers and loads more besides.

As we reach the end of another season, titles are decided, cups are won but there's still excitement to come! It's been another season to remember for Chatham Town after they made it back-to-back promotions by winning the Isthmian South East - and after his two goals fired his team into next month's Kent Senior Cup final too, Chats skipper Jack Evans tells us all about the title win, playing in front of big crowds, their home form and pushing on next year. The Kent Senior Trophy final ended in a 6-0 win for Punjab United, and their boss Chipie Sian tells us all about that great day and how - and why - he got to take the trophy to Wembley. We've got all the rest of the news and views from across the county as the SCEFL title is won, the SCEFL Division One play-off final is arranged and Matt's beloved Dover are somehow still fretting despite being eight points clear of the drop zone at this late stage... Plus we talk HMRC, fancy meals, football fatigue and a strange, strange novel...

We raise our bat to the stands once more as we chalk up another milestone and reflect on a week in which the game in our county has gone viral! One of the reasons for that is Sittingbourne defender Harrison Pont, who came off the bench as an emergency goalkeeper to save Adebayo Akinfenwa's last-minute penalty and earn his side victory in the Swale derby at Faversham - Harrison tells us all about the save, why there was no pressure on him to keep it out and denying a man he used to cheer on from the stands. Canterbury City are on the move again, swapping their groundshare at Sittingbourne for one at Margate, and City chairman Trevor James tells us the reasons behind that, his hopes to avoid the drop and, of course, the dream of getting back home. We discuss all the rest of the news after a crazy week in the non-league game in the county, and look ahead to another busy weekend. Plus we talk dog shows, cat skills, Bake Off and loads, loads more.
