Folkestone Invicta FC manager Jay Saunders has praised his players for their resilience after the team secured a 2-1 comeback victory against Potters Bar Town on 7 March 2026. The win at the Alcaline Stadium in Folkestone, Kent, provided an important boost for the side as they look to finish their season strongly.

The match saw the home side fight back to take all three points after previously losing their last league fixture at Billericay Town. According to manager Jay Saunders, the main priority for the squad as the season reaches its final stages is to secure wins however they can.

Speaking after the game, Saunders explained that the team’s ability to find a way to win is more important than the style of play at this point in the year. He mentioned that during this critical part of the campaign, the result is the most vital factor for the club’s progress.

Saunders took over as manager in early 2025 and has focused on building a team with a professional mindset. This latest result helps the club as they continue their matches in the Isthmian League Premier Division.
