Christie of the Bay

Herne Bay had a new name on their teamsheet as they defeated Beckenham Town on Saturday.

Defender Sinn’Kaye Christie started this season with Sheppey United, and has made nineteen appearances, scoring one goal. 

He was a big part of Ramsgate's success in the early part of last season, part of the side which reached the Second Round of the FA Cup. He made fifteen Rams appearances before stepping up to join Dover Athletic in National League South.

He made the move to Ramsgate from the Sussex coast in August last year, after earlier being announced as a signing for Whitehawk but not making an appearance.

Sinn’kaye started the 22-23 season in the upper reaches of Pitching In Isthmian Premier with Cray Wanderers, making twenty two appearances. He then moved down to the Kent coast, signing for Margate, and played another sixteen times.

The player spent the 21-22 campaign with Haywards Heath Town, where he was a big part of their play off charge, making forty two appearances up to and including their Play Off Semi-Final shootout defeat.

He joined Heath from Tooting and Mitcham United, and previously had two spells at the Hawks and two spells with Merstham. He also spent time with Hastings United, and was formerly an Under 21 player at Leatherhead.
