The  club  continued  homeless  and  shared  for  a
      while with Dartford, but the financial pressure of
      the gamble on the land and additional costs of
      getting into the Football League led to a financial
      crisis and the club withdrew from the league in
      1992.
      From the ashes of this disaster Maidstone Invicta
      was born and started again in the Kent County
      League, playing on the training pitch next door to
      its old London Road ground. The club continued
      to rise through the leagues, groundsharing with
      Sittingbourne and Ashford and re-naming to Maidstone United on route before returning to
      the Maidstone town centre in James Whatman Way in 2012.
      A Dunelm store is now on the site of the old Athletic Ground.
      Sittingbourne
      This  is  one  of the best examples  of how  the
      fortunes of non-league  football  clubs  can be
      compared to a roller coaster ride, many ups and
      perhaps too many downs!
      For the best part of 100  years Sittingbourne
      football club played in the town centre at the Bull
      Ground.
      But then along came a developer and placed £4.2
      million on the table and in 1990 the club took the
      cash and invested it into Central Park.
