    Not a bad walk either if you cut through the park, although perhaps not in the rain!

    Or if you walk along Darenth Road you pass by a very traditional pub, the Malt Shovel...

    not too keen on their new ground. Has a feel to me of a modern Austrian training ground somewhere in the alps. where during pre season the German national team come down and work on their tactics behind closed doors.

    Thanks, K&F - I've noticed the Malt Shovel gets good write-ups and will definitely give it a go.

    Is the entrance to the ground on Darenth Road, or Princes Road? Where will the away supporters be?

    Christ! Sounds bloodlessly cruel and efficient. That's us doomed tonight.

    Both
    There's one on Princes Road up by the school and another along Darenth Road beyond traffic lights with Princes Rd
    Princes Park is the acknowledged best non-league ground in the land and frankly superior to a few we visited 2 seasons ago (smallish at 4100 current capacity)

    Decent Young's beers served there, a nice traditional boozer

    That's a very long way round indeed
    10 minute walk along the route the FasTrack busses take - which passes the rear of the pricey but very well beered Malt Shovel

    Dont go in The Ivy Leaf - its shit. The Malt is top notch - go and give big Neil your money for better beer and a a better boozer

    We'll do the Malt Shovel before the game, and the Ivy Leaf after. Looking forward to this, a 'new' ground for me; (I remember their old gaff, where Maidstone United lodged temporarily).
