Belmont Banter (episode 4) The Official podcast of Whitstable Town F.C.
Ex Whitstable Town F.C. manager Scott Porter chats about his time at Whitstable winning his second promotion with Town after achieving the same feat with Hythe. His record breaking run in the F.A. Cup worth between £40 and £45,000 to Hythe after the F.A. Cup First Round away at Hereford, staying up all night celebrating then hung over and being interviewed by the BBC in the morning. A silly prank ending his promising football career after sledging down a hill near Folkestone on a ‘For Sale’ sign, he still has trouble with his knee to this day. Admitting to Belmont Banter that he is not everyone’s cup of tea, saying he is a winner and only interested in winning, and that all his players love him, he says he has the knack is being the manager in the changing room and a mate in the bar.
As a 15 years old playing right back for Folkestone’s first team against Faversham, winning 8-0 and setting up two of the goals. Despite his wonderful achievements at Hythe; Scott says… ‘the season at Whitstable Town ranks as my most enjoyable of them all; from the chairman, the football, the fans, the club, the players, the presentation night and the holiday away with all the players, that was the best time ever.’ I told that group of players this is something that you probably will never have again. Scott finishes by speaking about his new project; taking Hawking his local village club to the Kent League Premier Division. Whatever happens, with Scott Porter as manager it will be one hell of a journey. We wish him well…
