END OF SEASON REPORT....

I start this report at our last set of fixtures on Tuesday 23rd September (day's squad pictured top).

 

When we all set out for Billericay on that morning no one involved could have any idea how the day would unfold, least of all Charlie 

Everyone there that day will have their own memories but for me the response from all our club members,and also players from other clubs, the Billericay staff and of course the brilliant actions of the NHS staff will stay with me .

Football quite rightly took a back seat that day and I am so pleased of the positive outcome for Charlie and his family.

 

On the football side we experienced a really tough season in Division 1 but I have no regrets about us taking on the challenge we earnt our chance by finishing R UP in 2024 and in many games I felt we did our self justice against opposition which in a lot of cases have been playing Division 1 football for a few years .

​

Our squad spirit was again outstanding as was players availability in a difficult season three  players were ever present Pete Hall, Steve Wilkinson, and Paul Smeeton also to  be able to call on Mick Roberts, Brian Byford, and Andy Martin knowing not only will they will always help me out if they can but also put no pressure on me for game time all for the benefit of the team.

I will list all players who played this season at the end of this report , I want to thank everyone for their effort and commitment,  I won't be managing or playing 65s next year but want to wish you all the best for next season, I'm sure results will improve, but above continue to enjoy you're football .
