Wikipedia - Corinthian F.C. (Kent)
Corinthian Football Club is an amateur football club based in Fawkham, near Sevenoaks in Kent, England. They are currently members of the Southern Counties East League Premier Division and play at Gay Dawn Farm.
History
The club was established by Ron Billings Sr in 1972, initially as a youth team for eight and nine-year-olds. The club was named after the original Corinthian, an amateur club in the early twentieth century. They initially played only friendly matches, although they played over 60 games a season and attracted visits from Charlton Athletic, Norwich City and Tottenham Hotspur. They remained without a league until 1985 when a successful application was made to join the semi-professional Southern League. Despite still being an amateur club, Corinthian finished fifth in Division One South in their first season in the league. However, this proved to be their only top-half finish, and after finishing bottom of the division in 1990–91, they were relegated to Division One of the Kent League.
Despite three moderately successful seasons, Corinthian struggled in Division One, and after finishing bottom of the division in 1996–97 and 1997–98, they withdrew from adult football to concentrate on their youth teams. In 2009 the club rejoined the Kent League, taking the place of Slade Green. The league was renamed the Southern Counties East League in 2013. In 2019–20 they reached the semi-finals of the FA Vase, eventually losing 4–3 on penalties to Hebburn Town after a 2–2 draw. At the end of the 2020–21 season the club were promoted to the South East Division of the Isthmian League based on their performances over the two previous seasons, which had been abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, they were relegated back to the Premier Division of the Southern Counties East League at the end of the 2022–23 season after finishing bottom of the South East Division.
I Corinthians erano una squadra composta da giocatori amatoriali e non professionisti. Il club era finanziato dalle donazioni dei suoi sostenitori e non aveva uno stadio fisso, ma giocava le sue partite casalinghe in vari campi di Londra.
Lo stile di gioco dei Corinthians era caratterizzato da passaggi brevi e veloci e da un gioco di squadra fluido. La squadra era nota per la sua capacità di controllare il ritmo della partita e di creare occasioni da gol con facilità. I Corinthians erano anche una squadra molto leale e rispettosa degli avversari, e raramente commettevano falli o ricorrevano a tattiche scorrette.
Il club ha cessato l'attività nel 1939 a causa dello scoppio della seconda guerra mondiale. Dopo la guerra, il Corinthian FC non è stato ricostituito e il suo nome è stato utilizzato da altre squadre, tra cui il Corinthian-Casuals FC, che attualmente milita nella Isthmian League, sesta divisione del calcio inglese.
