O’Connor Strike Shocks Title Contenders as Dockers Edge Win.
Adam Woodward’s men stunned current title contenders Three Bridges FC by a single goal to nil, gaining an important three points for the Dockers.
Erith Town faced Three Bridges on the 1st of November 2025 in the Isthmian South East Division, with Three Bridges being the favourites to win this match.
Starting XI: Firth, Valler, Turner, Peter, Jayaguru, Devill, O’Connor, Oluwasemo, Oladipo, Milton, Olusesi.
Substitutes:Â Lewis, Connor, Duncan, McGeehan.
The boys in red and black entered the pitch full of confidence, looking to redeem themselves after their 3–1 Kent Senior Cup exit against Chatham Town. Erith Town looked very promising in both halves of the game, dominating Three Bridges around the pitch and stopping most of their opportunities to score.
Players such as Harrison Firth, Thomas O’Connor, Dexter Peter and Oliver Milton all had amazing performances today, with O’Connor fancying a shot in the 40th minute to open the scoring for the Dockers. He also had several close chances throughout the game, most notably a powerful free kick in the second half.
Harrison Firth had a superb match, stopping every shot on target from the Three Bridgesplayers. He has earned another clean sheet to his name.
This memorable win has lifted Erith Town out of the relegation zone and up to 16th place, three points clear of danger. Hopefully, the team can take this as motivation for next week!
Can Erith Town make it back-to-back wins in their next match against Ashford United FC, where they’ll be playing away from home? The match will be an evening kick-off on Tuesday at 7:45 pm.
