May 30 2021: Belmont Banter Episode 64 Gary Doe: The Official podcast of Whitstable Town F.C.
Gary Doe’s journey starts in the early 60’s when he was very young as he says playing with the old heavy leather football and wooden studs in your boots. He’d always lived in the Faversham area, signing for a team called Faversham Spartak, a short time later the family move to Medway. He played mostly school and local lads football and remembers playing in a cup final at on Chatham’s ground scoring four of the six goals. There were scouts at the game and Gary was selected for a trial at 13 years of age at Gillingham but his father said no, then a couple of years later he received a letter to go to Charlton after the trials was told he was not wanted. That disappointment hurt him so much that he never kicked a ball again for a couple of years…. But Gary’s story does not end there he then he went on to play Southern League with Canterbury City, then at Chatham, Sheppey, Lordswood, Faversham and Margate.
This is a great story for any budding young footballer just starting out…. The moral of Gary’s story is you can recover from all the knock backs and still go on the have a very good career in football…
