We are back and with our full complement to boot - and we've got three interesting interviews for you as well.
Dartford have flown up the league table to fifth after three wins on the spin and boss Adrian Pennock reflects on the campaign so far, and the impressive weekend win at Cray Wanderers. Larkfield & New Hythe are also having a fine campaign in the SCEFL, thanks in part to the best defence in the league. Joint-boss Fraser Walker discusses that, the club's ambitions and the "bickering" with his co-manager. And Deal Town are also bang in form and their boss Steve King discusses their rise up the table, avoiding second-season syndrome and why they never seem to draw...
