Athletico Teynham 6: Chattingham 0

Midway's top team Chattingham remain rooted to the bottom of the North Kent Relegation League after a six-goal defeat against fellow strugglers Athletico Teynham.

Manager Doug Outt, 59, remained tight-lipped in the face of this latest set-back, which leaves him still winless since he was appointed as manager nine months ago.

“The squad clearly has a communication problem,” he said. “This might be down to the fact that they all speak different languages, none of them being English.”

With a mid-week defeat against Dynamo Boreham Village to get over, Chattingham started brightly when after just five minutes of play, Congolonian striker Adobe Acrobat lashed the ball into the net. Two minutes later, he followed up with a superb turn and volley that left the ‘keeper helpless.

Unfortunately, on both occasions the net he found was his own team’s, with the striker maintaining his record of scoring at least one own goal in every game this season so far.

“The lad’s in impressive form in front of goal at the moment,” said ashen-faced manager Outt. “If only he could reproduce that form in front of the opposition’s goal…”

In the second half, Chattingham became more threatening, but despite threatening the referee, the linesman and several crowd members, they conceded four more goals before leaving the Athletico Teynham ground empty-handed.

“Well, not quite empty-handed,” said a grim-faced Outt. “Our Slovomanian defender Slobodon Miovakoat managed to nick the lead off the roof of the opposition’s changing room, so that should help with the wages bill this week.

Gutted. Sick as a parrot. We were all over them, except for the six goals we conceded. Never mind, next week will be different. Post-match kebab was the highlight of the day. C’mon lads, up the Chats! COYC!!
