Final Kendal Fans Get Home

Kendal Town has thanked the island for its. admittedly longer than intended, hospitality.

The final two Kendal fans made it back to the UK yesterday, having enjoyed a pro-longed stay after Storm Isha saw flights cancelled.

Having played out a 1-1 draw on Saturday, the Kendal Town team and fans found their journeys home cancelled and while the players managed to get home on Monday, their fans have had to sit out to wait for openings on flights.

Kendal said: ‘With our remaining two fans finally home, we’d like to say a massive thank you to all who travelled to the Isle of Man to support the Mintcakes!

‘Things might not have gone exactly as planned, but your support was exceptional and we hope you had a great weekend regardless

‘We’d also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to FC Isle of Man, the Isle of Man FA, and all the other people and businesses on the island who offered their help during our extended stay An added special mention for Andy Varnom, who personally made sure the squad was looked after.’

The club’s fans also thanked the island for its support this week, with special mention going to the Pinewood Social Club and its members for their hospitality.

FC Isle of Man travel to Kendal for the return fixture on February 24.
