The Secretary’s Jottings<br />

Good afternoon everyone, welcome to Woodstock.<br />

It’s fitting that for our last home match of the season<br />

we entertain one of the two teams to get promoted<br />

to the Bostik Premier Division, Carshalton<br />

Athletic. Congratulations to them on having a fantastic<br />

season, but from our point of view we would<br />

of course like to defeat a promoted team!.<br />

Despite all the injuries we have had and the leaving<br />

of some key players, our results and performances<br />

have been steadily improving. The mixture<br />

of experienced and young players that Aslan<br />

has bought in has seen some good football<br />

played by this Brickies team and with it, some<br />

good results. In the last eight games we have won<br />

four and drawn two. I felt that the football we<br />

played against Thamesmead last Tuesday was<br />

some of the best we have played this season.<br />

We were very unlucky not to get something out of<br />

the game at Hythe and also when we played<br />

Greenwich Borough.<br />

Being the last programme of the season Its time<br />

to thank a few people who have helped the season<br />

go smoothly. Firstly, it has to be you, the supporters.<br />

You support the club through thick and<br />

thin both home and away – over forty at Phoenix<br />

last week. I know that our players really appreciate<br />

this. I know that not everyone is happy about<br />

all the decisions we have to make but you know<br />

you can talk to any committee member about your<br />

concerns and we will answer you honestly. Secondly<br />

it has to be thanks to the managing director<br />

of Woodstock who just happens to be our chairman,<br />

Maurice Dunk. Without Mo’s support we<br />

would not be able to sustain a club at the level we<br />

are. Thanks to all the Woodstock staff (Phil, Maddy,<br />

Liam and Jordan) for all their hard work on<br />

match days. Thanks to the stewards, and turnstile<br />

staff who never let us down. Warren and Harry –<br />

my contact with the playing staff on match days.<br />

Aslan and Ian – for taking over and steadying the<br />

ship. Thanks to Sandra (my wife) who manages<br />

the boardroom for us even though I am sure that<br />

sometimes she would rather be somewhere else,<br />

also with regards to the boardroom, thanks to<br />

Carole Cooper and Sonia.<br />

Tonight, is presentation night. If you can attend<br />

that would be great. It’s a great way to end our<br />

home season.<br />

Season tickets are on sale now. Details of how to<br />

obtain them are on our web site<br />

(www.sittingbournefc.co.uk). You can pay by “Pay<br />

Pal”. We can also accept card payment, cheque<br />

or<br />

cash.<br />

During<br />

the<br />

closed<br />

season<br />

we will<br />

be<br />

asking<br />

for volunteers<br />

to help tidy up the ground and help us<br />

with improvements. As soon as the last match is<br />

played this season the far changing rooms will be<br />

gutted and rebuilt. They will feature two players<br />

dressing rooms that will meet the new FA standard,<br />

a referees changing room and a new medical<br />

room. The complex will also house new toilets.<br />

Next season we welcome a number of new youth<br />

teams. A lady’s team and an Under 23 team that<br />

will compete in the Bostik Under 23 league.<br />

I am pleased to say that in conjunction with Swale<br />

Council, Sittingbourne Football Club have been<br />

awarded “White Ribbon” Ambassador status. The<br />

aim of “White Ribbon UK” is to end violence<br />

against woman. You can read more about it here,<br />

www.whiteribbon.org.uk. For our part we will publicise<br />

the aims of “White Ribbon” through this programme<br />

and other media.<br />

You can keep abreast of developments at Sittingbourne<br />

Football Club through the closed season<br />

on our website (www.sittingbournefc.co.uk)<br />

and Twitter (@sittingbournefc). There is also a<br />

Facebook group that you can apply to join<br />

(https://www.facebook.com/groups/2218637310/).<br />

See you next season, when due to the FA’s reorganisation<br />

plans you will see new teams here at<br />

Woodstock Park.

Hello everyone<br />

From the Programme Editor<br />

Well we made it! This programme is number<br />

32 this season which makes around 900 individual<br />

pages over the season, which with a<br />

print run of between 45-50 programmes each<br />

time, makes about 40,000 pages. Its not been<br />

all plain sailing either! We print the programmes<br />

ourselves to keep the cost down,<br />

but that has<br />

entailed using<br />

3 laser printers<br />

, 2 ink jet<br />

printers, and<br />

about 20<br />

reams of paper,<br />

phew!<br />

The vast majority<br />

of the<br />

money raised<br />

from the programmes<br />

goes straight<br />

into the club.<br />

So it’s a huge<br />

thank you to<br />

all those who<br />

take the trouble<br />

to buy a<br />

programme.<br />

Thanks also<br />

to Tony Rickson,<br />

for supplying<br />

his excellent<br />

match<br />

reports, and to<br />

John & Sandra Pitts for printing and stapling<br />

some of the programmes., and to Faye Gotham<br />

and Jackie Mount for selling them.<br />

Some of this seasons programmes can be<br />

found as flip books hyperlinked from the fixtures<br />

page of the web site.<br />

I’ve crammed in 4 match reports in this programme<br />

so they have been heavily edited,<br />

however I wanted to make sure that all match<br />

reports to dat have been included in this seasons<br />

programmes.<br />

Its been a Topsy Turvey sort of season<br />

(again!) what with us losing almost the entire<br />

Under 18 section at the beginning of the season<br />

and Nick Davis departing, but good work<br />

by Glen Parkes, Mick Sayce and the new<br />

youth team managers and the promise shown<br />

by our new first team manager Aslan Odev,<br />

things are looking bright for next season.<br />

Now news from the Bostik League, starting<br />

with Leatherhead, whose chairman is our old<br />

manager Richard Brady. They have fallen foul<br />

of the minefield that it is called “International<br />

clearance”, and although they have only received<br />

the minimal fine of £100, as the player<br />

concerned, Yannis Ambroisine, had already<br />

played in England for Hayes & Yeading, and<br />

Waltham Forest. However they have also<br />

been ordered to forfeit all of the FA Cup (6<br />

wins) and FA Trophy (2 wins) prize money that<br />

they had won. I calculate that this could be<br />

over £20,000. This is a sum that would probably<br />

see us going down the drain, so I don’t<br />

know how they are going to deal with that.<br />

The other Bostik news is that South Park’s<br />

manager, Malcolm Porter, is leaving them at<br />

the end of the season. Porter has been involved<br />

with the club for eighteen years.<br />

So now we are already thinking of next season,<br />

and I would be interested to know if you<br />

would prefer me to just list a squad instead of<br />

a possible team with numbers. There is a<br />

trend, albeit small at our level, to now give<br />

players squad numbers, so it would make it<br />

easier for those of you who like to scribble on<br />

the team pages. Let me know, either at the<br />

game today or via the contact us button on the<br />

web site, what else you would like to see in<br />

the programme, bearing in mind that for cost<br />

reasons I like to keep the programme down to<br />

a total of 28 pages.<br />

All that’s left for me to say now is, enjoy the<br />

close season! Peter<br />

Carshalton Atletic—A Brief History<br />

Carshalton Athletic traces its roots to two separate<br />

teams playing in the area of Wrythe Green<br />

in Carshalton in the early twentieth century.<br />

Carshalton St Andrews was formed in 1897 by<br />

the vicar of St Andrews, Revd. C W Cleaver,<br />

and the club began playing in the Surrey County<br />

Herald League. In 1902 it was promoted into the<br />

Southern Suburban League Division Two West,<br />

but it agreed to fold and amalgamate with Mill<br />

Lane Mission in 1906.<br />

Mill Lane Mission registered the name change<br />

with the Surrey FA and played its first ever<br />

match as Carshalton Athletic on 7 September<br />

1907 at home on the Wrythe Green recreation<br />

ground in a friendly against Westbrook<br />

(Thornton Heath). The original club colours<br />

were red jerseys and white shorts and its nickname<br />

is the Robins.<br />

Following the reformation of the club in March<br />

1919, after the First World War, Carshalton<br />

moved into its still current home at Colston Avenue.<br />

The ground was built as a memorial to<br />

those club members that lost their lives in the<br />

war.<br />

Carshalton has most recently spent its time in<br />

the Isthmian Premier League, along with a brief<br />

unsuccessful spell in the Conference South in<br />

2004/05. During the first decade of the new millennium<br />

the club has endured many ups and<br />

downs.<br />

In 2007/08 the club avoided relegation on the<br />

last game of the season when other extraordinary<br />

League results kept it up. Then, the following<br />

year, the Robins just missed promotion to<br />

the Conference South, losing in the play-off final<br />

against Staines Town. The club ran into financial<br />

trouble by the end of 2008 but it was bought<br />

by local businessman Paul Dipre and, over the<br />

past five years, it has transformed.<br />

It is now one of the biggest community-based<br />

clubs in the south of England boasting two senior<br />

male teams, seven ladies/girls teams, 35<br />

youth/junior teams, two male and one female<br />

academy teams and two u18 teams. The club<br />

also has around 2,000 members, a thriving social<br />

side and Carshalton’s efforts have been<br />

recognised by the highest football authorities.<br />

The club won the ‘Surrey FA Charter Standard<br />

Community Club of the Year Award’, the ‘South-<br />

East FA Regional Charter Standard Community<br />

Club of the Year Award’ and then the ultimate<br />

accolade of ‘FA National Charter Standard<br />

Community Club of the Year’ all in 2012. In May<br />

2013 it was announced the club had won the<br />

silver medal at the UEFA ‘Best Grassroots Club’<br />

awards.<br />

On the playing field, Carshalton progressed to<br />

the third round proper of the FA Trophy in<br />

2011/12, recording convincing victories over<br />

higher League teams along the way: a 5-0<br />

thrashing of Bishops Stortford and a tremendous<br />

3-1 home win against Lincoln City saw the<br />

Robins eventually succumb in Wales against<br />

Newport County.<br />

Carshalton were due to be relegated at the end<br />

of the 2012/13 season when it finished one<br />

point off safety despite winning six of the last<br />

eight games. Essex side Thurrock however<br />

were deducted three points for fielding an ineligible<br />

player, thus allowing the Robins to leapfrog<br />

them back into the Premier division.<br />

The reprieve led to an arduous season for a<br />

young Robins squad however and the club was<br />

relegated to the Ryman League Division One<br />

South by the end of 2013/14. Season 2014/15<br />

found the Robins flirting with relegation but<br />

eventually finished 7 points above the relegation<br />

places. Season 16/17 saw the Robins finish<br />

just above half way, whilst 17/18 under player /<br />

Manager Peter Adeniyi, they narrowly missed<br />

out on promotion, however this season they<br />

have clinched one of the top two promotion<br />

spots.

Match Reports<br />

Saturday, 7th April 2018 Sittingbourne 1<br />

(Akdeniz) Molesey (0) 0 By Tony Rickson<br />

Attendance 112<br />

Sittingbourne: Harry Brooks, Josh Dorling,<br />

Fabrice Blewordah (Yellow card), Lewis Chambers,<br />

Chris Webber (Yellow card), Chris Elliott,<br />

Seyfettin Akdeniz, Dan Parkinson (Tyrone<br />

Guthrie, 64 min), Kane Rowland (Germaine<br />

Dua, 14 min), David Smith, Tom Loynes. Subs<br />

not used: Charlie Allen, Rhys Bartlett, Max Farrelly.<br />

Praise Sittingbourne for keeping going for 90<br />

minutes to finally get the only goal of the game,<br />

praise them for keeping a clean sheet, praise<br />

them for shrugging off the loss of their main<br />

goalscorer with a head injury after just 10<br />

minutes.<br />

But overall it wasn’t a great performance and<br />

poor old Molesey must have been sick at going<br />

back home round the M25 with nothing to show<br />

for a stubborn effort.<br />

In the end the game centered on two goalline<br />

clearances. Fabrice Blewordah, my man-of-thematch,<br />

saved Sittingbourne with one such<br />

clearance in the first half, while Molesey’s<br />

Prately-Jones used his hand to make his in the<br />

88th minute, costing him a red card and a penalty<br />

which resulted in the game’s only goal.<br />

Wednesday 11 th April 2018 Hythe Town 3<br />

(Kinnear 51, Ansah 77, Chapman 83<br />

mins) Sittingbourne 2 (Blewordah 48,<br />

Rowland 89 mins) By Mick Sayce. Att 227<br />

Sittingbourne: Harry Brooks, Harrison Hat<strong>full</strong>,<br />

Fabrice Blewordah, Charlie Allen (Chris Elliott<br />

82 mins), Reiss Crimmen, Chris Webber,<br />

Sefyettin Akdeniz (David Smith 45 mins), Lewis<br />

Chambers, Kane Rowland, Dan Parkinson<br />

(Josh Dorling 82 mins), Tom Loynes. Subs not<br />

used: Rhys Bartlett, Josh Algar.<br />

Both teams set up in a 4-4-2 and the game began<br />

with the teams sparring with other in the<br />

middle of the field. However, within 5 minutes<br />

Hythe nearly took the lead when a curling shot<br />

rebounded into play off the top of the right-hand<br />

upright. Sittingbourne though had plenty of opportunities<br />

in this game and had the better of<br />

the first half. However Hythe Town took control<br />

in the second despite the Brickies taking the<br />

lead through Fabrice Blewordah 3 minutes into<br />

the 2 nd half. However 3 minutes later Hythe<br />

equalised after an unstoppable shot from Chris<br />

Kinnear rocketed past a rooted Brookes and<br />

into the top right hand corner of the net. Hythe<br />

took control and two more goals sealed the<br />

game for them despite a 2 nd for the Brickies<br />

scored by Kane Rowland a minute before time.<br />

Saturday, 14th April 2018, Phoenix Sports<br />

(0) 0 Sittingbourne (0) 1 (Smith 81) By Tony<br />

Rickson Attendance 108<br />

Sittingbourne: Harry Brooks, Josh Dorling,<br />

Fabrice Blewordah, Charlie Allen (Yellow card)<br />

(Tyrone Guthrie, 16 min), Chris Webber, Reiss<br />

Crimmen, Harrison Hat<strong>full</strong>, Lewis Chambers<br />

(Chris Elliott, 79 min), David Smith, Dan Parkinson<br />

(Josh Algar, 90 min), Tom Loynes. Subs<br />

not used: Abdul Malik Usman, Max Farrelly.<br />

Sittingbourne created loads of decent chances<br />

all afternoon but won the game with a stroke of<br />

luck.Tom Loynes got his body in the way of an<br />

attempted Phoenix clearance that could have<br />

bounced anywhere but fell straight into the path<br />

of David Smith who crashed a left-foot shot into<br />

the far corner to score the only goal of the<br />

game.<br />

Tuesday, 17th April 2018 Sittingbourne (0) 2<br />

(Elliott (pen) 50, Riches 78) Thamesmead (1)<br />

2 (Parrish (pen) 43, McIntyre 72) Att 115<br />

Sittingbourne: Harry Brooks, Josh Dorling,<br />

Chris Elliott (Lex Allan, 78 min), Tyrone Guthrie,<br />

Chris Webber, Reiss Crimmen, Harrison Hat<strong>full</strong><br />

(Seyfettin Akdeniz, 83 min), Dylan Riches, David<br />

Smith, Dan Parkinson, Tom Loynes. Subs<br />

not used: Abdumalik Usman, Xavier<br />

McDonagh, Max Farrelly.<br />

Dylan Riches in his first start for the Brickies got<br />

a terrific 78th minute goal to earn Sittingbourne<br />

a point as they twice fought back to draw an<br />

entertaining game.<br />

Not a player was booked from either side in a<br />

fairly-contested game even though the referee<br />

awarded two penalties and three of the four<br />

goals came from dead ball situations.<br />

Sittingbourne had opportunities to win this one.<br />

The hard working Smith had first half opportunities<br />

to give Sittingbourne the lead but Thamesmead<br />

keeper Carey twice made good saves.<br />

Thamesmead were gifted the lead just before<br />

half-time as McIntyre hit a free-kick from way<br />

out on the touchline, nearer the halfway line<br />

than the goal, which went straight in at the far<br />

post with Brooks initially coming for it and realising<br />

too late he’d made a mistake.<br />

Still, a draw was just about a fair result.

Sittingbourne U18 v KFC Halle St Martinus<br />

On Sunday, 8 th April 2016, 163 family, friends and supporters came to Woodstock Park to witness<br />

the first ever International Friendly between Sittingbourne U18’s and KFC Halle St Martinus<br />

Academy from Belgium. Everyone on both sides was hoping for a good game and they<br />

were not disappointed.<br />

Pennants were exchanged by the two captains and with the handshakes over, both sides settled<br />

down for a game of football.<br />

It was relatively quiet for the opening minutes but then the Brickies were the first to get into their<br />

stride. A combination of great saves from the Halle keeper and a number of missed chances<br />

kept the game at 0-0 for a time until, completely against the run of play, Halle broke down the<br />

right, hit a low cross towards the penalty box where the ball ricocheted off the leg of a Sittingbourne<br />

defender and flew in at the near post past the wrong-footed keeper.<br />

Sittingbourne bounced back and soon levelled the score. That was it, from then throughout the<br />

rest of the match it was mostly the Brickies who were asking the questions. A number of substitutions<br />

were made at half time by both sides to make sure that all the players got playing time<br />

but the momentum carried on, with Sittingbourne eventually winning 5-1.<br />

The game was made all the more interesting for the spectators because even though there was<br />

not a huge amount of goalmouth action to be seen, there were high levels of skill shown by the<br />

two sides, both by individuals and also in the way they played as a team; a credit to both sets of<br />

managers, coaches and supporting staff.<br />

At the end of the game both sides chose a Man of the Match for the opposing team with the<br />

Belgian manager choosing Eniola Usman for the Brickies.<br />

The match was played in good spirit but it wasn’t just about the game. The whole evening was<br />

a great success for all concerned; it was an experience for both sets of players and the atmosphere<br />

generated by the occasion was commented on by more than a few people from both<br />

sides. The Belgian officials –a number of whom were parents of the players- said that they and<br />

their players had thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Maybe a summer visit to Belgium could be on<br />

the cards<br />
