Recovered core records and unresolved gaps

The final tables and four honours boards once listed as missing are now restored. This register states their exact coverage, then separates the unavailable table images, absent lower divisions and supplemental research categories that remain unresolved.

Record status: core archive restored with bounded gaps

Recovered core archive

These are separate source collections. Their counts are not combined into one archive total, and none of their rows have been added to the unchanged 177-row Explorer.

  • Senior top two

    45 seasons, 1968–69 to 2012–13; winner and runner-up.

  • Reserves First Division

    35 seasons, 1978–79 to 2012–13; 34 target-board rows plus one labelled continuation.

  • Reserves Second Division

    9 seasons, 2003–04 to 2011–12; 8 target-board rows plus one labelled continuation.

  • Reserves Cup

    35 seasons, 1978–79 to 2012–13; 34 target-board rows plus one separately labelled Divisions 1&2 Cup continuation.

  • Core final tables

    33 season pages, 1980–81 to 2012–13. The preserved FCHD corpus contains 40 division tables and 668 printed rows, with 30 pages using FCHD only. Primary final tables are selected for all three 2007–08 divisions, the two lower divisions in 2010–11, and both 2012–13 divisions.

Exact recovered division coverage

Every line below is generated from the divisions actually published on the 33 table pages. A division not named on a line is not claimed as recovered. FCHD warns that some lower divisions are absent and some tables do not balance.

  • 1980–81 to 1997–98: Division One only (FCHD Final League Table).
  • 1998–99 to 2006–07: Premier Division only (FCHD Final League Table).
  • 2007–08: Premier Division, First Division and Second Division (Official archived final tables (old Kent League site)).
  • 2008–09: Premier Division only (FCHD Final League Table).
  • 2009–10: Premier Division, Division One and Division Two (FCHD Final League Tables).
  • 2010–11: Premier Division, Division One and Division Two (FCHD Premier Division only; official archived Division One and Division Two final tables).
  • 2011–12: Premier Division, Division One and Division Two (FCHD Final League Tables).
  • 2012–13: Premier Division and Division One (Official archived final tables (old Kent League site)).

Unrecovered lower divisions remain missing where the sources do not publish them. The tables hub also lists each season individually rather than implying complete all-division coverage.

Separate supplemental research scope

The following categories are not gaps in this core restoration and are not included in its route or row counts. They remain separate research work:

  • FA competitions and County Cups
  • Monthly and end-of-season awards
  • News archive and match results
  • Kent Soccer Company Floodlight Trophy
  • Top scorers and scorer records
  • Historical interactive tables

Prepare an evidence packet

Record the exact competition, season and name exactly as shown. Add the source title, publisher and date, plus a page image or transcription with surrounding context. Keep the original file and your notes together, and retain the packet locally so provenance is not lost if a link or hosted image disappears.

Direct submissions are currently closed: there is no public mailbox or form. The current status is maintained on the corrections page; that link is a status check, not a promise that material can be sent now.
