This took Spence out allowing May through, it was one of several times the same thing was tried by the same player?

I don't think there can be any argument. Sadly the officials missed it.

Plenty of time to deal with things after that.

In isolation I don't think there is any argument and i thought so at the time (it was right in front of me)
However what I will say is that 5 mins before that Jay May went up for a header with 3 players and got a elbow in the back of the head and an arm across his throat....the ref waved play on.
So I can only assume Jay felt it was ok to back in and put his arm across like that as the ref had deemed it not to be a foul previously.
There's no hiding the fact Jay May was backing in and generally making a nuisance of himself all game. He got given fouls against him which I felt were harsh and vice versa.
Last year Terry Brown described him as being one of the best in non league football at doing that. It aggravates defenders and causes a distraction,

Assistant is looking straight at it and deems it to be no infringement, a perfect example of the quality of officiating at this level.

I don't see that as a definite foul, but appreciate that others might

This was one of the worst matches I have seen for holding, as pointed out it wasn't just once and Kevin may have been lucky to escape a yellow for another incident. There was one terrble tackle right in front of the dugout a 5 yard (one footed) lunge which didn't get carded. Generally and Frakey will know more than me but it does feel although assistants are being told not to flag for anything apart from offsides and dead balls?

Referee's view was blinded and also was the wrong side and easy to see how the assistant missed it as well...this one is a foul for me because of the arm movement but at this level their is a lot more contact allowed than at lower level as that is what the players expect. If you look at player reaction there is only one half hearted appeal from the player who probably had the best view of the incident

On a slightly different subject, as I was driving away from the ground I put BBC Surrey on the Radio, not a single mention of the game, is this normal?
As soon as I got to within BBC Kent range there was plenty? Did I miss something?

I have had this conversation before and have even had a go at BBC Surrey, their take is that we are in London and we should be covered by BBC Radio London - And just happen to have a few bigger fish to fry which is why we get diddly squat! I live in Kent and its a different world when it come to local football on the radio and even on the TV.

That sucks, we have a thread on our forum moaning about the fact Saturday's result wasn't mentioned on the news despite Ebbsfleet and Dartffords being listed (Margate didn't get a mention either)
You deserve more and to be frank there is plenty air time to cover you.
I don't consider Charlton to be in Kent but they get good coverage on Radio Kent, and considering the number of non league clubs in Kent we always get a good mention and interviews with the managers and the odd player.
Apologies for adding fuel to the fire but I genuinely think you deserve more

If you look at player reaction there is only one half hearted appeal from the player who probably had the best view of the incident I hear you but what's really illegal about his arm movement? He just gets his arm and then his body between Spence and the ball, without making much physical contact. Spence crumples afterward due to his opponent's strength. Looks dodgy at normal speed but I cant see enough illegal contact to penalize him, and in fact it is good play

It isn't a foul. If that was given against us we'd be moaning that the player was just out muscled in a 50/50. The Maidstone player was just stronger.
No one reacts in such a way to suggest they feel it is a foul either from what I can see.
Also how far back do you go before a goal to moan about a foul in the build up? As stated elsewhere, plenty of other chances after that to win the ball before the goal.
It is quite tiresome and sometimes darn embarrassing the 'evidence' produced after every defeat as to why we lost or how hard done by we were etc.

It was not suggested to be the reason for the defeat, you made that conclusion yourself.
