The Secretary’s Jottings
Good afternoon everyone. Welcome to Woodstock.
Our visitors are Molesey. Welcome to their players, officials and supporters. A welcome also to
today’s match officials.
Molesey will be out to avenge our narrow 3-2 win back in November. The report of this game is in
this programme.
Our last home game should have been last Saturday when our visitors were to be Thamesmead
Town. We were quite confident that the pitch would be fine despite the rain earlier in the week.
But early morning heavy rain made some parts of the pitch very soft underfoot and possibly dangerous.
We had great difficulty in getting a referee in to do a pitch inspection. When he did arrive
he also felt that the ground was too soft in places and called the match off. This was a big financial
blow to us as it was the last chance we had of making any money over a holiday period after
we also lost our holiday home match over Christmas. It’s a good job it is coming to the end of the
season as some of the photos I have seen of pitches where matches did take place last Saturday
looked like the pitches would never recover without major work on them. Although I am not a big
fan of artificial pitches I would reluctantly concede that if we continue to play matches in the
months we do then they are the answer to preventing match congestion. Also, Aveley and Whyteleafe
must have made a tidy sum from renting their grounds out to the clubs they have done
over the past week.
As it turned out, our last home match was against Greenwich Borough. This was an excellent
performance but not quite enough
to prevent a 2-1 defeat. Still, there
was much to like, not least that we
competed with one of the best
teams in the league for the whole
90 minutes.
Only one game for us then over the
Easter period when a decent crowd
of 206 saw us come back from being
one goal down at Ramsgate to
force a draw. Probably a fair result.
Ramsgate had the best of the first
half and we had the advantage in
the second half.
Remember we have two quizzes
coming up at Woodstock Park to
raise funds for the club. On Friday
13 th April we have a music quiz
hosted by BRFM’s Peter Finch. If
you came to our last one you will
know how entertaining this was. Our second quiz is on Friday 27 th April when (by popular demand)
we have a general knowledge quiz hosted by Jimbo who runs highly successful quizzes at
Woodstock every other Monday. These evenings organised for the supporters are vital to us as
we get nowhere enough support through the turnstiles to finance everything that is required to
run a club of our status and size. Looking further into the summer. Woodstock will have a
“cinema under the stars” event when the film, Disney’s “The Lion King” will be shown. Put the 6 th
June in your diary for this, a first at Woodstock.
Next up for us are two away games, Next Wednesday we travel to Hythe and next Saturday we
travel to Phoenix Sports. Our next home match is Tuesday 17 th which is our rearranged match
against Thamesmead Town.
Enjoy the game!

Hello everyone
From the Programme Editor
Plenty for me to talk about in this programme but most of it is a bit gloomy involving clubs who
are in, or could be in trouble. Also in the programme I have included a pictorial depiction of how
the geography of the 3 southern step 4 leagues looked at the 2nd April, and a reminder of the
current Sittingbourne squad.
First then a local story involving Canterbury City. They are awaiting for planning permission for
a new ground, which they would share with Canterbury Rugby Club. City have been ground
sharing now for some 11 years and their chairman, Tim
Clarke, fears that if permission is not granted the club would
collapse.
Staying fairly local, Bostik Premier side Thurrock have announced
that they are to disband at the end of the season. If
you have been reading my notes in previous programmes you
will not be surprised. This announcement will alter the step 4
and 5 promotions. It is expected that there will be an additional
pro-motion place at both of these steps. At our step (4) the
losing play off finalists with the highest points per games
played will go up. At step 5 (Eg The Southern Counties
Eastern League) an additional club will be promoted which is
expected to be a 3rd placed club with the highest Points per
game. Remember that by step 4 we are not just talking about
our division but al-so the Bostik North and the Evo Stick East
and West. At step 5 we are talking about a whole host of step
5 leagues!
Back to Thurrock, but this time its East Thurrock Utd. The
Thames Gateway initiative has meant that East Thurrock Utd’s
ground is valued at £10M. This valuation has caused a court
battle over ownership. Its basically a family at war. The Bennett
family and interested parties, including a nephew and a
boyfriend, all appeared to have played their part in saving the
club back in 2002, when it had debts of £300,000. The nephew
and now ex boyfriend want 10—20% of a sale to developers and this is being disputed. There
was a flare up after the hearing apparently. The judge will rule on ownership at a later date!
The Bostik Premier relegation battle is in its final stages and it’s a two horse race between
Tooting & Mitcham Utd and Burgess Hill Town as to who will drop down to our level. The favourite
at the moment must be Tooting, who although level on points with the Hillians, have a
vastly inferior goal difference and have played two games more!
Finally Sittingbourne Youth play Halle St Martinus Youth from Belgium here at Woodstock tomorrow
. Listen out for the KO time! Peter

Molesey—A Brief History
The original Molesey club was established by
former Corinthian player James Jenkinson Knox
in autumn 1892 under the name Hampton Court
and East Molesey Association Football Club. [2]
Their first match was played on 24 September
against Barnes, with the new club winning 14–5.
They were renamed the Molesey Football Club
in 1896, but following Knox's death a series of
clubs emerged, including Molesey Athletic and
Molesey St Mary’s, before Molesey St Paul's
was formed in 1905. The club absorbed Molesey
Football Club in 1911 and became Molesey
& St Paul's United, before being renamed
Molesey Football Club. The club joined the Surrey
Junior League in 1920 and won Section 3 in
their first season, going on to win the championship
playoffs with a 100 win over Godalming
Federation. They also won the Surrey Junior
Cup and the Surrey Junior Charity Cup.
Molesey then moved up to Division One of the
Southern Suburban League. However, the cost
of travelling led to the club resigning from the
league after a single season, dropping into the
Kingston & District League. The remainder of
the 1920s was a successful period for the club
as they won the league and the Teck Cup four
times, the Surrey Junior Charity Cup three times
in a row between 1926–27 and 1928–29, the
Chambers Cup twice and the League Cup once.
In the 1933 the club moved up to the Central
Division of the Surrey Intermediate League. In
1939 another merger saw Molesey and Molesey
Athletic of the Kingston & District League amalgamate
to form Molesey United. The new club
played in the Kingston & District League, winning
it in 1939–40 and 1940–41.
West Molesey Old Boys was formed in 1927
and entered the Kingston & District League, going
on to win the league in 1933–34. After winning
the Teck Cup in 1934–35, they moved up
to the Surrey Intermediate League in 1936 and
won the Surrey Intermediate Charity Cup in
1937–38.
In 1946 Molesey United and West Molesey Old
Boys merged to form Molesey Football Club.
The new club joined the Surrey Intermediate
League and won the league in their first season.
After moving to their new ground on Walton
Road, they moved up to the Surrey Senior
League in 1953. After winning the Surrey Senior
Charity Cup in 1956–57, the club were league
champions in 1957–58. In 1959 they transferred
to the Spartan League, finishing as runners-up
in the league and losing the League Cup final in
1959–60. The club won the League Cup the following
season and were losing finalists in 1963–
64 and 1971–72. They remained in the Spartan
League until joining Division Two of the Athenian
League in 1973. In 1977 the club moved
leagues again, this time joining Division Two of
the Isthmian League.
League reorganisation saw Molesey placed in
Division Two South in 1984, where they remained
until finishing as runners-up in 1989–90,
earning promotion to Division One. They won
the Southern Combination Challenge Cup in
1990–91. In 1992–93 the club were Division
One runners-up and were promoted to the
Premier Division. The 1993–94 season saw
them reach the first round of the FA Cup for the
first time, losing 4–0 at home to Bath City; the
club also won the Southern Combination Challenge
Cup for a second time. They were relegated
back to Division One at the end of the
1995–96 season and then to Division Two in
1998–99. Further league reorganisation in 2002
led to the club becoming members of Division
One South, before being placed in Division One
in 2004 and then back in Division One South in
2006 as the league was restructured.
In 2007–08 Molsey finished bottom of Division
One South and were relegated to the Premier
Division of the Combined Counties League. In
2012–13 they won the Southern Combination
Challenge Cup again. They won the Premier
Division title in 2014–15 and were promoted
back to Division One South of the Isthmian
League, as well as winning the Southern Combination
Challenge Cup, a trophy they retained
the following season.

Match Reports by Tony Rickson
Easter Monday 2nd April 2018
Bostik South League
Ramsgate 1 Sittingbourne 1 Att 206
Rather than storming through the 50-point barrier, Sittingbourne edged their way to within a point
of it thanks to sub David Smith’s second half penalty equaliser.
This was their first draw in 21 games, and a fair result, too, with neither side doing quite enough
to win their Easter Monday derby.
The energy and drive that Sittingbourne brought to the recent games against South Park and
Greenwich Borough was strangely missing, and it took a couple of second half substitutions to
shake them up enough to hit back for a draw.
Still, that’s just one defeat in the last four games, a much-improved record on what had gone before.
Sittingbourne made three changes from the team that did well in defeat against Greenwich the
previous Tuesday, with Chris Webber and Germaine Dua returning, and exciting Swiss prospect
Seyfettin Ardeniz given his full debut.
Captain Webber was excellent in the heart of the defence, showing good determination and terrific
positional sense, while Ardeniz looks quite a find. Tricky on the ball, and with a good turn of
speed, he was the main threat all game to the Ramsgate defence, even though his covering
back needs a bit of working on. Home fans haven’t seen him yet, but it’s a treat to look forward
to.
On a breezy day and on a sometimes bobbly pitch, it was a low-key first half with chances few
and far between.
For Sittingbourne, Ardeniz got round the back of the Ramsgate defence but his cross was cut
out, and the same player forced a free-kick just outside the area only for Reiss Crimmen to hit it
over the bar.
At the other end Harry Brooks advanced to make a good save with his feet as Penny turned up
in space, and then watched as Millbank headed narrowly over, but a lot of the play was confined
to midfield with both sides guilty of giving the ball away too much.
Ramsgate made a positive start to the second half and having always looked at their most dangerous
from corners against a not very tall Sittingbourne side, they took the lead when Brickies
old boy Ollie Gray headed one in from six yards.
Sittingbourne responded and gradually began to thread some better moves together with Lewis
Chambers hitting the bar after Crimmen’s long throw had caused problems for the home defence.
The introduction of David Smith and Tyrone Guthrie from the subs’ bench gave Sittingbourne
much more thrust and positivity, but it was Ardeniz who created the equaliser when his cross
was stopped by a defender’s hand. Smith smoothly converted the resulting penalty, sending the
keeper one way and stroking the ball the other side.
Sittingbourne looked the likelier of the sides to grab a late winner, but they needed Brooks to be
alert when he dived to his right to fist away a Ramsgate free-kick.
Deep into injury time and Sittingbourne forced a corner that Chambers headed goalwards only to
see a defender scoop it off the line.
Sittingbourne’s midfield has impressed in recent matches with their hard running and commitment
but although that was somehow missing this time, at least they returned from their Bank
Holiday trip to the seaside with something to show for their troubles.

Chris Webber, Reiss Crimmen, Seyfettin Akdeniz, Dan Parkinson (Seb Rowland, 90 min), Kane
