littlehampton Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 After all the recent departures to Braintree, how refreshing to hear this afternoon that Manager Andy Leese has announced the signing of two new experienced players - midfielder Ryan Blackman from Canvey Island, and our new goalkeeper Joe Wright from Bishops Stortford.Early days, but promising signs, and encouraging to see both players have a good pedigree. No doubt more announcements shortly!Keep up the good work Andy and Darren .....we're all behind you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4wembleyfinals Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 That's right, leather boots and leather nailed in studs. In the days when men were men. A good meat pudding before you played. A thick muddy pitch, a heavy sodden leather ball with laces and a bucket of cold water to wash in after. We thought nothing was better. We must have been mad no wonder we are all riddled with arthritis!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
