From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gravesend & Northfleet F.C. are an English football team currently playing in the Nationwide Conference. They play their home matches at Stonebridge Road in Northfleet, but the club are now looking to build a new stadium in Gravesend. The team in the media are often called simply (and incorrectly) called Gravesend F.C.
[edit] History
The team was formed with the joining of Northfleet United and Gravesend United FC in 1946. The team has enjoyed an impressive rise in the last 4 seasons, gaining promotion from the Ryman League (now equivalent to the Conference South) to play in the Nationwide Conference. The current manager is former Coventry City defender Liam Daish, and the assistant manager is Alan Kimble, who used to play for Wimbledon. Gravesend and Northfleet have also been managed in the recent past by Andy Ford, who resigned after a GLS Cup game after a extended run of poor fixtures, only to pursue a coaching job at Stevenage Borough F.C. a few months later.
