Manager Kevin Watson thinks Ashford’s opening-day Isthmian South East trip to newly-promoted Erith & Belvedere will be a good test of where his squad are at.

The new-look Nuts & Bolts, fresh from beating lower-division Hollands & Blair on Saturday to progress in the FA Cup, visit the Southern Counties East Premier Division champions.

The game will be played on Sunday with The Deres, who hammered division rivals Littlehampton 6-0 in the FA Cup, ground-sharing at Welling United.

Defender Finn O’Mara - who Watson and assistant Adam Flanagan worked with at Herne Bay last campaign - former Ramsgate boss Jamie Coyle, one-time Tottenham trialist Josh Ajayi and fellow frontman Chris Dickson are among Erith’s squad.
