7 OUR VISITORS

When we started our game at Hampton and Richmond in September, Hampton were bottom of the National League South, but they go into today’s game in a comfortable mid-table position. That win over us at the Beveree was seemingly the “THE BEAVERS” trigger for a recovery. FACTFILE Hampton have won eight league games this season and two cup ties. After losing their first four games they got their first Founded: 1921 Ground: Beveree point at home to Billericay. As well as beating us they also beat Chairman: Jacques Le Bars Dorking, Chippenham, Welling, Hungerford, and Maidstone, and Manager: Gary McCann in November they not only won at home to leaders Wealdstone, they also scored four goals to win at Braintree. They won a replay at Billericay to get through to this stage of the FA Trophy. DANILO ORSI-DADOMO Gary McCann is the man in charge of Hampton, taking over from Alan Dowson who left for Woking 18 months ago. But we have faced Gary a number of times as he was the manager of Hendon, who we met several times in our Isthmian League days. Hampton’s top goalscorer is Danilo Orsi-Dadomo with eight goals in league and cup. Danilo joined Hampton from Hungerford, HONOURS where he scored twice against Hampton last season. 2 x Isthmian League They named three other forward players on the bench against 5 x Middlesex Senior Cup St Albans last week. Tyrone Lewthwaite has scored four goals, Cole Brown was also named on the bench but didn’t come on, RECORDS neither did Jefferson Louis, for whom the expression ‘much Most appearances: travelled’ has never been more apt. Now 40, I make it he is with Tim Hollands (706) his 38th club, including loan spells. They include Oxford, Bristol Rovers and Mansfield in the football league, and Gravesend and TYRONE LEWTHWAITE Record goalscorer: Northfleet (as they were then) and Margate here in Kent. He Peter Allen (172) also has international honours with Dominica, and his 23 year career does give plenty of evidence he knows where the net is. Record attendance: In midfield, Sam Deadfield was the man who scored the late 3,500 v Hayes & Yeading United (2009) winner against us in September, Louie Soares is a Barbados international who’s played at Ebbsfleet and Aldershot, and Most goals v Tonbridge: Shaun McAuley scored a thunderbolt against us for Kingstonian Elliott Godfrey (2) last season. Robert Paris (2) In defence, right-back Matt Young scored the Hampton goal against St Albans last weekend, Charlie Wassmer has played for FORM Margate and Maidstone and joined from Billericay, although he Last 5 Games: was sent off last Saturday. Another former Billericay man at the 7/12 v St Albans a D1-1 back is Dean Inman, while in goal is Dan Lincoln, who’s signed COLE BROWN 30/11 v Braintree a W4-0 since our meeting earlier in the season having featured against 26/11 v Billericay a W2-1 previously for Bognor. However Lincoln has also played county 16/11 v Wealdst’e H W2-0 cricket as a batsman for Middlesex, where he played three 9/11 v Weymouth a L1-2 T20 games last season.

Nobody at the club seems to know how they became known as the Beavers, but the Beveree has been the club’s home for 60 years, which may be linked to the name.

MANAGER’S VIEW “After Hungerford I demanded the lads went out and righted a wrong. We got caught out early, but at half time I told them to give it their all and that the next goal was important.” PLAYER’S VIEW - KHALE DA COSTA “It’s a big win for us, it means a lot. We needed a good reaction to the disappointing way we played on Tuesday and I’m glad we could do that for the fans and for ourselves too.” OPPOSITION VIEW “A commanding BIllericay offense saw us enter half time two goals up, but the creaking Billericay defence soon fell apart in the second half, allowing Tonbridge to snatch a win.”
