WHEN Faversham Town's Peter Clarke handed out club ties to business pals, he did not expect it to be a Chinese take-away.

Yet treasurer Peter's friend Dr Graham Patience liked the gift so much that he proudly wore it for a special dinner with contacts in Nanjing, some 200 miles from Shanghai.

KNOT FROM ROUND HERE...Dr Graham Patience shows off his Faversham Town tie at a dinner with Chinese business associates in Nanjing

Accountant Peter said: "Graham is one of several clients who I have given ties to this year and it was a big surprise to receive the picture from him. Luckily, fans don't have to travel that far to get their hands on a Town tie, you can buy them at the clubhouse!"

New Town supporter Graham, managing director of ship propeller manufacturers Stone Manganese Marine Ltd, is now in pole position to win a new competition on the club's website, www

With the holiday season rapidly approaching, press officer James Brown and webmaster Tony Gray want to see just how far the Three Lions travel this summer.

James explained: "We would like supporters to send us their holiday snaps from around the world featuring them in club clothing, be it a Town jumper, polo shirt or replica jersey.

"Who knows we might get someone up Mount Everest wearing one of our benny hats, but maybe that's being a bit ambitious. We're looking forward to looking at all the snaps, from Blackpool to Burundi!

"All the pictures will be featured on the website and we'll pick a winner in time for the new season."

Tony revealed that the new-look website had received hits from all over the world.
He said: "The website is averaging 400+ hits a day and although the majority of visitors are UK based we are receiving regular hits from New York, California and Brisbane. We've even had visitors from Vietnam and Peru!"

The "Three Lions on Tour Competition" has a first prize of a season ticket for the 2006/2007 season. Second prize is a replica jersey and third place wins a polo shirt.
