Kent League 1994/95 season attendances

Heading back thirty years to the Kent League



Looking back to the 1994/95 season, with a full attendance grid below for all the teams competing in the Kent League Division One.

Many of the clubs featured have moved up the pyramid, a number of been up pyramid and returned the equivalent level today in the SCEFL Premier Division.  One team has  never been promoted and relegated in 30 years, in Tunbridge Wells, whilst Canterbury City are now playing one step lower in the SCEFL Division One.

The Kent football scene has also lost 6 of the clubs featured in Darenth Heathside, Furness, Greenwich Borough, Kent Police, Slade Green and Thamesmead Town.  

Finally Crockenhill are still going, albeit they have fallen down the football ladder to the Kent County League Division Two level. 

The season's highest attendance was 447, which occurred twice, when Folkestone Invicta entertained Sheppey United and Dartford hosted Folkestone Invicta

The lowest attendance of the season was Corinthian vs Canterbury City, when a tiny crowd of just 15 turned up. 

Sheppey United won the Kent League championship and recorded their average home attendance of 128, which wasn't beaten for another 20 plus seasons.  

Dartford recorded the highest average home attendance of 306 

Whilst Corinthian recorded the lowest average home attendance of 47.

In nearly case every, all teams have at least doubled, some tripled and some have even increased by greater % uplift in their home attendances in the space of 30 years.  Quite a growth of football crowds in Kent.

The only clubs, where their attendances have either stayed the same or are now lower,  are the teams who are now playing at lower level.

FA Cup Attendances for 1984/85 season

This time back 40 years to the 1984/85 season This was Dartford 's year in the FA Cup in reaching the Second Round Proper, drawing 1-1 at Watling Street at home match against AFC Bournemouth. With the prospect of facing Manchester United in the Third Round if they could overcome Bournemouth in the replay.  Unfortunately, the Darts lost 4-1 in the replay. During the mid 1980s football attendances hit rock bottom, so with the likes of Folkestone , Canterbury City and Fisher Athletic all achieving very respectable gates in the later stages of the competition, was mightily impressive.  Preliminary Round - 1 September 1984 Att Bromley 4-0 Cray Wanderers 248 Chatham Town 2-3 Metropolitan Police 98 Crockenhill 0-3 Grays Athletic 80 Deal Town 2-2 Hastings Town 75 Dover Athletic 0-0 Horsham 181 Erith and Belvedere 2-2 Rainham Town 87 Littlehampton Town 1-1 Canterbury City 142 Tonbridge AFC 4-1 Molesey 196 Whitstable Town 1-0 Burgess Hill Town 58 Preliminary Round Replay - 5 September...
