Goals: Kevin Lisbie 6, 32, Ben Francis 36
Attendance: 40
Lisbie scored his second brace of the week to help the Millers into the second round of the FA Vase, or so we thought! Goals after 6 and 32 minutes for the experienced striker with Ben Francis adding the Millers third after 36 minutes, put the Millers in control. However, the club were later removed from the competition for fielding an ineligible player in the match!. Matt Parsons unbeknown had already played for another club in the competition before signing.

Sheppey United 2 v Cray Valley 2 after extra time (Cray Valley won 5-4 on penalties)
Goals: SU- Saunders, Williams 42
CV- Kevin Lisbie 2, Denzel Gayle 15,
Attendance: 184
Kevin Lisbie struck home a second minute penalty after Denzel Gayle was tripped in the area before Gayle himself added a second after 15. Lisbie then handled in his own area and although Andy Walker blocked Trey Williams spot kick, Rob Saunders slotted home the rebound. The Ites were level 3 minutes before the break as Williams headed beyond Walker from 6 yards. Despite a thrilling second half and extra time neither side could find a winner and the match was decided on spot kicks, Batten, Babbington, Ralph and Bradshaw all scored for the Ites as Lisbie, Flack, Osborne and Luchford replied. Walker pushed away Williams kick to leave Gayle with the chance to send the Millers through. Gayle stepped, keeper Lawlor went to his left, Gayle went the other way and for a brief moment as the ball hit the inside of the post, time stood still before the ball went into the goal and not out of it and the Millers passage into the next round was secured.

Sam Berwick got beyond the Millers defence before sliding the ball past the advancing Walker and into the corner of the goal to open the scoring after 21 minutes. Five minutes into added time and perhaps the last chance of the match had passed as substitute Jack White scooped the ball over the top of the goal from 6 yards out after meeting Sam Bailey's low cross. But there was still time for the Millers to grab a point as Ben Francis and N'Guessan exchanged passes on the edge of the penalty area before N'Guessan slid the ball across Alex Prall and into the far corner of the net from 12 yards.
