Dover’s on-the-pitch future looks bright with the news that key players Lee Spiller and Danny Chapman have both signed new contracts that will keep them at the Hoverspeed Stadium until the end of the 2005/2006 season.

Both players signed for the Whites at the beginning of last season, though for Chapman it was his second spell with Athletic separated by a brief spell at local rivals Folkestone Invicta. Spiller celebrated his new deal with a goal in the draw against Merthyr Tydfil at the weekend.
