FISHER  3-1  LORDSWOOD
Presence & Co Southern Counties East Football League Premier Division
Saturday 29 March 2025
Stephen McCartney reports from St Paul’s Stadium

LORDSWOOD’S newly-appointed manager Scott Porter believes he will get the club out of relegation trouble in their final six games of their Southern Counties East Football League Premier Division campaign.

 

The bottom-of-the-table Medway outfit have now lost their last five league outings and are nine points adrift of safety and Porter may not have enough time to ensure the club’s 29-year stay at this level of football is extended.

Fisher were without their manager Ajay Ashanike, who was serving a one-match stadium ban for being shown his third yellow card of the season during last weekend’s 1-1 draw at local rivals Stansfeld.  Fisher also lost midfielder Salim Nassor to a rolled ankle during the second half today.

The play-off chasing hosts took the lead through right-back and captain Jack Gibbons before Lordswood swiftly levelled through a sublime finish from striker Tunde Aderonmu, 36.

However, Fisher regained the lead through striker Kesna Clarke’s fourteenth goal of the season, before he was replaced by Billy Brown and the returning striker drove in a late third to keep Fisher’s promotion hopes alive.

“I don’t mind coming to places like this and getting completely outplayed and getting beat – I’ll hold my hand up to that - but it wasn’t that today,” said a disappointed Porter.

“Obviously the style of play, we’re trying to get into the boys. We’ve only had an hour and a half with them on Wednesday but the goals we gave away were poor, poor goals, three poor goals, individual mistakes without the ball, not chasing runners.

“We score an absolute worldy, hit the crossbar, miss an open goal with the rebound, miss Plummer at the back post but when you’re down the bottom, you’ve got to take your chances and not give them any chances and they were too easy goals and soft and you get punished, especially at this level.

Fisher assistant manager Luke With said: “It wasn’t our best of games but the most important thing is we got the three points.

“I always enjoy doing what I can and whenever I need to do it but it’s a nice surprise here and there but I’m happy to be the second man.

“I mean, we scored quite early on. We thought, cool, we’ll get a few goals and hopefully wrap it up but they kept going, they scored a good goal, a couple of mistakes from us but they scored and made it difficult for us, stayed together and yes it took a little bit of time for us to break them doing but finally we did.”

Both were asked what threats their opponents gave their sides this afternoon.

With said: “I think they were good in the air, a little bit of pace on the wings, that was mainly their threats.”

Porter replied: “They’re good going forward, the wide people.  They overload with the full-backs and if the wide men don’t track the full-backs, it puts pressure on our own full-back and it happened too many times in the first half.

“But you see second half, there wasn’t many chances for them.  I don’t think our goalkeeper had a save to make to be fair but it’s the goals, it’s the goals we’re giving away and I hate it and hate it!”

A crowd of 204 were at St Paul’s Stadium on a blue-skied sunny day of temperatures of 14 degrees on the banks of the River Thames in Rotherhithe.

Fisher took the lead with their first chance, timed at three minutes and 48 seconds on the clock.

Gibbons, who was some 25-yards from the by-line, threw the ball short to winger Jake Lovell, who played the ball back to Gibbons, who easily cut inside Lordswood’s left-winger Callum Peck and cut into the box where his right-footed angled drive from 15-yards flashed across goalkeeper Aaron Lee-Wharton and nestled inside the bottom far corner of the goal.

“Jack’s good at right-back. He likes to drive forward, inside, outside, he can go either way. He does that a lot throughout the season and he done well. A great finish as well to put it in the bottom corner,” said With.

Porter added: “Same again, didn’t go with the thrower.  The thrower’s scored the goal. It’s just simple! The ball’s gone back to the thrower, go with the runner!

“It’s just a poor goal, it’s just a poor goal after four minutes.  Doing all the preparation on Wednesday and doing all the prep before the game, it’s just a poor goal.

“Since I’ve been a manager for the last 15 years, I hate conceding poor goals. I clap a worldy, I don’t mind it but when you just don’t go with runners and switch off after four minutes, that’s just a lack of discipline to what we’re trying to do here.”

However, Lordswood showed great character and restored parity with six minutes and 13 seconds on the clock, through Porter’s trademark direct football.

Right-winger Malachi Hudson was about 35-yards from his own goal and he smacked a left-footed volley over the top of Fisher’s centre-half Donald Macauley and with goalkeeper Isaac Ogunseri all at sea, the former Erith & Belvedere striker caressed a sublime right-footed chip over the keeper and into the far corner of an open goal to score from 30-yards on the angle.

“Tunde worked his nuts off today and he got a great goal. It’s the only place he could’ve actually hit it and he did,” added Porter.

“It was a good response and you think ‘we’ll go again here,’ and I thought we were alright first half, I thought we were ok.

“Tunde’s got an aerial threat, he’s big and strong, he works the line and that finish, I don’t think you’d see a better one this season!”

With added: “I think it was a bit slack from us. We didn’t cover around and I thought that our keeper didn’t need to be that high, so a couple of mistakes from us. We can also press the ball to stop it from going over the top but poor from us but a good goal from them.”

Both sides then cancelled each other out before Lordswood called Ogunseri into action in the 19th minute following a long throw in from the right.

Holding midfielder Joshua Leach launched the second of his four long throws into the Fisher box, the ball was flicked on and centre-half Ashley Sains rose at the near-post and the Fisher goalkeeper plucked the ball out of the air to prevent the ball sailing into the top right-hand corner.

Fisher’s holding midfielder Flavio Jumo appeared to cover every blade of artificial turf and he skipped past his opposite number Elliott Moore with ease but scuffed his left-footed drive from 22-yard, which trickled across the untroubled goalkeeper and past the far post.

“Flav’s a great player but I wouldn’t say long shots was his best part of the game but he’s got a lot of energy and at times he produces a bit of magic in there, which is good,” added With.

Ogunseri was at fault for Lordswood’s goal but he redeemed himself with a good low save to deny Lordswood in the 25th minute.

The hard-working Aderonmu drew a foul from Fisher centre-half Ange Djadja in an aerial challenge inside the D and referee Christopher Bowdery awarded Lordswood the set-piece.

Faced with a six-man wall, Lordswood’s set-piece specialist Joshua Oliver stroked his right-footed free-kick under the wall and Ogunseri got down low to his right to hold onto the ball, with Aderonmu ready to pounce on any loose ball.

Porter added: “Josh has got that in his locker and you see the one in the second half but you want those ones to go in where you are, down the bottom, you want those ones to go in and the keeper’s done the rebound as well, so it was a good save and a good strike.”

Praising his goalkeeper, With added: “His standards have been good this year so anything in and around him, I know he’s going to get and also he’s not bad when it’s nowhere near him as well, so yes I was quite comfortable with that to be fair.”

Leach launched his third long throw into the Fisher box and Djadja towered over Charlie Plummer at the near-post to head the ball clear and Leach hooked his recycled ball past the near-post from the right.

Fisher produced a well-worked move to regain the lead with 34 minutes and 52 second on the clock.

The hosts started patiently at the back before Macauley played the ball along the deck to Barrington, who played the ball into Jumo, who then played the ball back to Barrington, who was in a central position rather than out on the left flank.

Barrington swept the ball out to right-winger Lovell, who easily cut inside Lordswood’s weak-link in defence, left-back Nathanial Blanks, before cutting the ball back towards the near-post to Clarke, who swept a first-time shot into the right-hand corner, giving Lee-Wharton no chance.

With said: “It was a good move. We were getting a little bit of joy down the right. Jake ran down the line a few times, got in a few good crosses in, so it was good that it paid off.

“Kes is a finisher and you give him a chance like this, he’s going to score, so it was a good move.

“Me and Ajay have been looking for a prolific striker and he has been and that’s 14 goals in, I don’t know how many games but it isn’t a full season. He’s got a good return, he works hard for the team and when there’s a chance in and around the box, he’s lethal!”

Porter bemoaned: “But we didn’t go with the runner, twice! He got in pockets twice. From one of our front three, got in and we’ve spoken about it so many times, you’ve got to be good going forward and the other way, defending without the ball. Just not doing the right jobs and doing the hard jobs.

“You do the hard jobs, you get your rewards at the other end.  The second goal was another one, we just didn’t go with our runners, it’s as simple as that.

“We gifted them, we gifted them to be clinical. When you’re down the bottom, these things go against you and it’s happened again today.”

Fisher were hitting too many long balls forward into no-mans-land and they went into the interval with a slender lead.

With said: “Just to calm down a little bit! I thought we played into their game a little bit, went a bit too long. I told them to just calm down, get your foot on the ball, can you pass it? Can you get the ball wider, just simple things like that really.”

Porter added: “We’re in the game, we’re still in the game. We’ve got to keep fighting! We’ve got seven cup finals, well six now, which is positive. You’ve got to be positive. You’re still in the game, away at Fisher 2-1.

“I thought we came out really well. I thought we started (the second half) really well. We just really wanted to get that goal, to get our rewards for the first 20 minutes (of the second half).”

Porter questioned the fitness regime of his predecessors Lee Garlinge and Ross Wiles, revealing, “We had a few tired legs, don’t get me wrong, I don’t think the side are fit enough. I don’t know what they were doing before we came here but they’re not fit enough – you can see that – people are blowing after 60 minutes.

“We needed the five subs but we’re not fit enough and it’s the discipline as well, doing your jobs without the ball, that’s so frustrating for me.”

Lordswood came out with all guns blazing and many long balls were hit into channels – a well-known tactic for Porter.

With added: “We expected that. They were very together, when they attack they’re together and unless they’ve got pace in behind, which is just mainly the two or three of them, they gave us a little bit of trouble but we over-rode the storm and came out well.”

Lordswood right-back Matthew Holness hit a volley up towards the edge of the Fisher box and the quiet Peck cut across his marker to drill a shot on the turn past the near-post from 16-yards after 129 seconds.

Fisher left-back Conor Darwish was penalised for tripping Hudson and Oliver floated the resulting free-kick into the box and centre-half Plummer got around the back unmarked and steer his shot past the near-post from a tight angle.

Leach’s fourth long throw came in the from the right and Oliver’s free-header sailed across a crowd of players and just past the far post as Lordswood kept knocking on the door.

“That’s why it’s frustrating to come away losing 3-1 – it’s not a 3-1 game,” claimed Porter.

“Like I said to the boys in there, if we take the mistakes out, you come away from home winning 1-0 and scoring a great goal.

“But I’m afraid that’s the story of the season before I came in.  I’ve watched the videos back of the goals we’ve conceded before I’ve come through (the door) and they’re all the same sort of goals and I’m afraid at this level of football, in this league, you can’t afford to do that.”

Djadja and Macauley have made Fisher more resilient defensively and serious promotion contenders via the play-offs.

“We’ve had a few long throws this season from a few different teams and we’ve worked on them a little bit and you can see at the beginning of the season we were conceding a couple of those goals but we haven’t conceded for a while from a long throw, so it was quite comfortable to be honest,” added With.

However, Fisher were always a threat on the counter-attack and Hudson lost the ball to a pressing Nassor, who released Barrington down the left.  He fed the ball along the deck back to Nassor, who then swept the ball to Clarke, whose first-time set-up on the edge of the box was hit first time by Lovell, who curled his first-time right-footed shot over the top of the far post from 22-yards on the hour-mark.

“It was a good move, a lovely move. We know the boys can do that. We see it in training every week but I was a bit gutted that we didn’t finish it off with the shot really,” added With.

Lee-Wharton made a comfortable save into his midriff while down on his knees to prevent Fisher’s substitute midfielder Charles Yiadom-Konadu, 38, scoring with a left-footed angled drive from the right some 25-yards from goal as the game entered the final 25 minutes, as Fisher were finding Lordswood a hard nut to crack.

“Charles is magic. He can work that space one-on-one and he can also hit it from distance as well. He’s scored a few from distance. We were hoping that would rattle the back of the net but it didn’t,” added With.

Lordswood were to be denied the equaliser with 29:15 on the clock after Leach drew a foul from Barrington some 30-yards from goal.

Oliver stroked his deflected right-footed free-kick cannoning off the top of the left-hand post/angle of crossbar and the ball dropped down for substitute right-winger Lekan Osideko, who went to pieces and put the rebound over the crossbar with the goalkeeper defeated.

Porter said: “It’s taken a deflection off the top of the shoulder of someone in the wall and if it hadn’t have done that it would’ve been in the top corner and then we’ve missed an open goal, Lekan missed that rebound.

“Like you say, when you’re down there, it doesn’t go for you and we wanted to put another one up top but they scored the (third) goal.”

With added: “It was an unlucky free-kick to be honest. Isaac was sort of there and I was a bit gutted because we should’ve been following it in, so I was a little bit disappointed with the following.”

Fans’ favourite Brown made a welcome return to football in the 83rd minute following personal issues and the striker made an instant impact on proceedings, almost scoring after only 38 seconds from entering the pitch.

Barrington easily cut inside Lordswood’s substitute right-back George Miles (who launched six long throws into the Fisher box) and whipped in a low cross towards the back post and Brown’s hooked half-volley was comfortably gobbled up by Lee-Wharton.

Brown sealed the deal with Fisher’s third goal, timed at 41:00, with a long-range strike.

Firstly, substitutes Tyron Mbuenimo and Siao Blackwood linked up down the right, then Gibbons charged towards the edge of the penalty area before being tackled with a strong tackle.

The ball then fell to Brown, who drilled a right-footed angled drive across the keeper, from 16-yards, the ball nestling inside the bottom far corner, with a clinical strike.

“Billy normally scores goals like that to be fair, from those sort of angles, sum up he always puts them in. I don’t know how but somehow he always puts them in,” revealed With.

“He’s a player who’s been with us for a long time – we love him – and he just needs to get his fitness back and he’ll be flying again, don’t worry.”

Porter added: “A shot-cum-cross which we didn’t deal with basically and how he scored from there, I’ll never know but that summed it up to be fair.

“But there’s positives, it’s not all doom and gloom. I said that to the boys in there, there’s a lot of positives.  Me, Jason (Lillis) and Mark Lane have seen it with our own eyes now, where we’re at.

“It was always difficult to come in. We’ve only had a certain amount of time with them, a very short space of time with them. They’re trying to adapt to how we want to do things but there’s positives, there’s positives but also I pointed out the negatives because obviously you’ve got to point that out to them to put them right.”

When asked what the negatives were from his new side, Porter replied, “Not working, not doing the simple stuff, i.e. going with runners, not being on the front foot, being on the back foot too many times, didn’t get enough second balls.

“But that’s down to us to rectify that and put that right and we’ve got a short space (of time) to do that.”

Lordswood finished the game with ten-men as Plummer was thrown in the sin-bin (46:45) by referee Christopher Bowdery.  The referee told Ogunseri to take a free-kick in the right place and the Lordswood centre-half said something in ear-shot of the referee and didn’t return to the pitch as the final whistle was blown at 52:12.

Porter replied: “I don’t get how referee’s turn their back every time there’s a goal-kick. They can run backwards, can’t they?  If you run backwards, you can see what the goalkeeper’s doing, so he’s looking at it blind because he’s running forwards. I never get why referee’s can’t run backwards and look at the goalkeeper because the goalkeeper’s mugging him off and we come out the end of it with a player getting sin-binned because the referee can’t run backwards!”

A spirited Lordswood kept plugging away, however, with Oliver hitting a speculative left-footed shot across Ogunseri and harmlessly wide of the far post from 35-yards (49:45), before Miles hit a long ball with his right-foot and ineffective substitute left-winger Sam Wright got round the back and steered his header past the near-post from a tight-angle (50:37).

Now in fourth-place in the table, Ashanike takes back control for next Saturday’s home game against a Snodland Town side that’s only three points clear of the relegation zone going into the final month of the season.

“I’ve just said to the boys out there, that’s one ticked off. We’ve got another five games trying to get maximum points as we can to hopefully get in the play-offs and hopefully get higher up the table as possible to get a better spot in the play-offs,” added With.

“I’m a little bit disappointed because we were in a better position. However, we are where we are. We’re here and we’re going to make the most of it, so we’re just toing to keep cracking on, making sure we get as high in the table as possible, hopefully get a home advantage for at least the one (play-off) game.

“No one’s really going to catch the top two. We’re just looking at everyone around us and hopefully we keep our results high so we just need to make sure that we’re doing the best with the teams that we’re playing against.”

Snodland Town lost 3-1 at home to ninth-placed Corinthian today and beat Fisher 2-1 on 21 December.

With said: “That was our first loss after a good run, I think we were eight (league) games unbeaten, so we’re going to definitely be up for that.

“They’re going to be a hard team. We saw that at their ground. It will be different coming here because their pitch is very different to that so depending how they change to our pitch this time because we know how we play, we know what we expect but it will be interesting to see how they are.”

When asked how many points Fisher need to cement their play-off place, With replied, “It’s a difficult question. We’ve just got to make sure we take each game at a time, make sure that we get the maximum points that we can.

“We’ve got five games left, we’re looking for 15, it’s as simple as that. I know that 12 will probably guarantee us play-offs, will almost guarantee us play-offs, just depending on goal-difference but we’re not going to take that lightly, we’re looking for maximum points.

“We’re trying to keep our feet on the ground. It’s a position that we really haven’t been in before, so we’re trying to keep our feet on the ground, making sure our players are fit, mainly because that’s the most difficult part of any season really, keeping your players fit.

“The most important thing is just winning our games. We’re in a good position, we’re now fourth. We’re one point behind Rusthall, played the same amount of games, so someone’s got to knock us out rather than we knock someone else out, so we are in a good position.

“We’ve just got to make sure we take each game at a time, knock the points off and go again each week.”

Bottom-of-the-table Lordswood must pull off promotion winning form and claim six wins from their last six – considering that they have won only six of their 32 league games, Porter must pull of a miracle if they are to avoid the drop.

Lordswood host tenth-placed Glebe (44 points – 12 wins, eight draws and 14 defeats) next Saturday.  Fred Dillon’s men lost 3-2 to Kennington, in a game switched to Sevenoaks Town’s Greatness Park while Glebe’s Foxbury Avenue is transformed into a 3G pitch venue.

“We move on, we’re ready for the challenge and we’ve got to Glebe on Saturday.  We’ve probably got, I left two out, so we’ve got 18 players in my squad. We’ve got hopefully another one coming in once the (approach) goes through on Monday and we’re ready for the challenge.

“I want the players to learn from this, to learn from this very, very quickly and do all the hard stuff in football, which probably they’ve definitely not done all season.

“At this level of football in the SCEFL and I know it very well, been there, done it in this league and you’ve got to do all the hard stuff and then let everything else happen after that.

“They’re a good bunch of lads in there, honest but they just need to get to the way that we want to play football and they’ll be fine.

“We’re up against it but at the end of the day that’s football and you’ve just got to take it and move. We’re ready for the challenge. There’s going to be more twists and turns, but we’ve got to start winning football games and the first one has got to be Saturday.  There’s a lot of winnable games there as you can see so we’re ready for it.

“We’ve got six cup finals now, we’re not out of it by a long shout. You only have to look at the table now and what’s going on as well.

“I believe we’ll get out of it, I really do, so do the management team and we’re here to do that and this was always a tough one to come to for the first one and we’re back at home on Saturday and I believe and I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t think that.

“We’re ready for the challenge, we’re in the challenge.  We’re amongst it and we’ve got six cup finals and I believe we’ll get out of it.

“We’re at home so we’ve got to make that pitch to pour advantage. We’ll train on it on Wednesday so first home game, hopefully get the crowd behind us, get people through on numbers and push on because there were positives today but we’ve got to sort those negatives out very quickly.

“I’m up for it and there’s going to be more twists and turns in those six games. As long as we now learn from this, move on from this and put things right, we believe we can get out of it.”
