Not the start we needed to a new season ~ Winless by June. But with no new recruits during the winter were having to bank on youth to get us through.
If things don't improve Hythe will end up back in County 4 for the first time since 2001.
One positive note during the month was beating Lymington in the Craft Cup to make it to the Semi Finals.
