OLD BORDENIANS 2 TUNBRIDGE WELLS 2 Kent/Sussex Regional 2 TUNBRIDGE Wells played a potential title-decider on Saturday in this top-of-the-table clash away at Old Bordenians.

Running has always been popular in Tunbridge Wells but never more so than now, with more people than ever seen out pounding the pavements, woods, footpaths and parks in a bid to shed excess pounds and tone up wobbly bits. And, finally, I've joined their ranks after years saying I never would. Why? Several reasons really; the realisation that the big 4-0 is looming, and, aside from running around with young children I don't...

JUST a shade over 7,000 Eagles fans turned up to watch Crystal Palace face Crawley Town in the Carling Cup this season. As games go it was not the most exciting affair, and the home side's 2-0 victory over League Two opposition will hardly be spoken about when fans look back on classic encounters in years to come. However, those who did turn up are already saying 'I was there the night Jonathan Williams made his first start for...
