Johns Jottings Hello everyone, welcome to The Martin & Conley stadium. Because of holidays this programme covers the matches against Hastings United and Whitehawk. The Programme Editors notes will resume in the next edition. Welcome to the players, officials and supporters of both teams and the match officials. Welcome also to our mascot for our Whitehawk match, George Beeney. George is 8 on the 31st December. I hope George and his mum and dad, Keeley and Lenny, enjoy their afternoon with us. On Saturday at the Whitehawk game we are pleased to host our main sponsors, Quinn Estates. They have sponsored us for the past two seasons and we are very grateful to them for this . Both matches covered by this programme are daunting ones. Both teams are flying high in the Isthmian South East division. Hastings United have the amazing record of being unbeaten in the League this season. They have a striker, Davide Rodari, who scores for fun. He scored 8 goals recently against East Grinstead Town in a Velocity trophy match. Hastings United are second in the current form table whilst Whitehawk are first! Whitehawk’s last defeat was against Hastings United when they lost by the odd goal in a Buildbase Fa Trophy replay. Last Saturday we had one of our best results of the season when we beat then third placed Sevenoaks Town. Sevenoaks took the lead after five minutes but Kane Phillip got us back into the game just 18 minutes later. Sid Sollis made sure that the points came back to Woodstock with a very good goal in the 57th minute. Two away defeats before that were disappointing when we lost to Burgess Hill Town and Whyteleafe. This year the majority of our defeats have been by just the odd goal and with a bit of luck we could gave had far more points than we have. An interesting fact for all you Brickies fans is the number of ex Sittingbourne players that played for five Kent sides last Saturday. The total was 21. Ashford United, Herne Bay, Ramsgate and Sevenoaks Town fielded four each and Faversham Town had 5 ex Brickies in their team. One of the players who caught my eye in that list was Roman Campbell. I fully expected that when Roman returned to The Gills after his loan spell with us that he would go on to greater things. He played for Enfield Town from the Isthmian Premier division but only played one match for them. To see him now turning out for Faversham is a shame because for what ever reason he is not fulfilling the potential we all thought he had The next two matches are away at Haywards Heath Town next Tuesday and then at Phoenix Sports on Sunday 22nd December. This match is a 1:00pm kick off. The next match here is on Saturday 28th December when we play Ramsgate. Finally as this is the final programme before Christmas day all us here at Sittingbourne Fc would like to wish you and your family a very happy Christmas.

Hastings— A Brief History The present Hastings United Football Club appears to have existed continuously since 1901 having undergone three changes of name. The origins of the club began with the founding of old town side Rock-A-Nore in 1894; however, five years later they became defunct but in 1901 a new club started-up using the same name. They won the East Sussex League Championship in 1907/08 and were to be amongst the foremost local sides regularly winning trophies until World War One called a halt to proceedings. The Rock-A-Nore club resumed in 1919, this has led to some confusion as to whether the Club was actually founded in 1901 or 1919 and Hastings United has taken the view that it was 1901 in which year the club won five local trophies plus the Sussex Junior Cup, the latter success being crucial as it not only secured them an invitation to become a founder members of the Sussex League when it started in 1920 but led to the Council developing a community ground. They purchased Pilot Field Meadow where the first pitch was prepared on the upper area, later “The Firs”, with Rock-ANore having first call upon it. In April, 1921 it was agreed to change the name to Hastings and St.Leonards Football Club. During this period the Council invested substantial amounts in developing the lower pitch turning it into a stadium, complete with the concrete grandstand that still graces the ground. The club joined the Southern Amateur League in Division Two which they won at the first attempt in season 1927/28. Promoted, the club made a sensational entry to the top division playing their opening league game at Wembley Stadium, the home for one season of Ealing Association, where they lost 0-1. Season-onseason progress saw their finishing positions improve whilst in 1933 they reached the final of the Sussex Senior Cup for the first time only to lose to Eastbourne after a replay. The following season they were runners-up to Ipswich Town but in season 1934/35 Hastings & St. Leonards won their first league championship although they were beaten by Worthing in the final of the Sussex Senior Cup. In season 1935/36 the club won a second league championship and recorded a first Sussex Senior Cup success, defeating Lewes 2-0 in the final, while being beaten finalists in the AFA Senior Cup going down 0-2 to holders Harwich & Parkston at Crystal Palace. The following
year they became only the second club to win the Southern Amateur League championship in three consecutive seasons. The fourth league championship came in 1939 and that season the club also lifted the Sussex RUR Charity Cup for the first time. For season 1939/40 the Sussex County League staged a war emergency competition with the club winning the eastern section of both competitions. Shortly afterwards the club suspended operations for the duration of the Second World War but maintained a link with local youth football and, therefore, were able to field teams in a full programme of club matches during season 1944/45. Resuming in the Southern Amateur League, the club were again runners-up in 1946 and decided that the time was right to look for challenges elsewhere and, unable to gain entry to either the Athenian or Isthmian Leagues, they entered the Corinthian League. In the summer of 1948 Hastings & St. Leonards found that the lease on the Pilot Field stadium had been awarded to the newly formed Hastings United F.C. who had gained admission to an enlarged Southern League without ever having kicked a ball.
With no suitable ground available, “The Amateurs” were forced to withdraw from the Corinthian League but the club continuing with teams in the local leagues playing on the top pitch at the Pilot Field. In 1952 the club became founder members of Division Two of the Sussex County League, but in the first three seasons they finished bottom of the division. Eventually in season 1959/60 the club finished as runners-up. and they remained in Division Two for a further twenty years. During that period the club changed its name to Hastings Town and improved The Firs ground re-profiling the pitch and constructing a purpose built clubhouse. Success returned to the club in season 1979/80 when they won both the Division Two title and the divisional cup. The following season they won the League Challenge Cup and finished in fourth place in Division One with a further four seasons being spent in Division One. Meanwhile Hastings United just retained their place in the Southern League’s Premier Division, however, in June, 1985 the club ceased trading when it was found they could no longer sustain their accumulated debts.

Hastings— A Brief History Cont Town were offered a place in the League’s Southern Division. Several ex-United players joined Town and the unified side featured in the promotion race during their first two seasons but just missed out finishing third and fourth in 1986 and 1987, respectively. It was the return of former Hastings United manager Peter Sillett that saw Town establish themselves as a force in the Southern League winning the Southern Division in 1992. Playing at their highest level ever, Town struggled and Sillett was replaced by Dean White, the local former Chelsea and Gillingham player, who saw them to safety. The club spent a further six seasons in the Premier Division of the Southern League, during which they won the Challenge Cup, and reached the final of the Sussex Senior Cup four times in five seasons, lifting the trophy in 1996 and 1998. Season 1998/99 saw an attempt to transfer to the Isthmian League refused but having resigned from the Southern League they were only accepted back as new entrants and started season 1999/2000 in the Eastern Division which they won in 2002. At this time the club acquired the company name Hastings United and since have played under that title, however, promoted to the Premier Division a twentieth position finish saw them make an immediate return to the Eastern Division but a first appearance was made in the F.A. Challenge Cup competition proper when the side went through to the first round proper after winning in a replay at Kettering Town. side, the dream ended with a 0-1 defeat at Stevenage. Relegation and the F.A.’s Non-League restructuring moved the side into the Ryman Isthmian League where they finished in eleventh and twelfth places in Division One in 2005 and 2006. Following a fourth place finish in season 2006/07, promotion to the Premier Division was won by defeating second placed Tooting & Mitcham United in the end of season play-off final. Season 2007/08 Hastings United struggled in the Premier Division and mid-term the club dispensed with the services of Nigel Kane, reserve team manager John Lambert acting in a caretaker capacity, until former Millwall player and ex-Tonbridge Angels boss Tony Dolby arrived and steered the side clear of relegation. Tony did not stay at the Pilot Field and Lambert was appointed as manager for season 2008/09 but once again United found themselves in the lower half of the table for much of the season
and after a prolonged spell in or just above the relegation places Tony Dolby returned to replace Lambert and once again oversaw them retain their place in the Premier Division. The 2009/10 season was United’s most successful since gaining promotion. Manager Tony Dolby left the club in December 2010 and was replaced by Jason Hopkinson who was previously assistant manager at Lewes. Results picked up which enable the club to retain its Premier Division status.. Jason left the Club during October 2011 following a disappointing start to the season and was replaced by central defender Sean Ray United again found themselves in a relegation battle but managed to preserve their Premier Division status. A poor league season in 2012/13 saw the club relegated from the Ryman League Premier Division, but there was a considerable FA Cup run which saw United reach the third round proper before losing 4-1 away to Championship side Middlesbrough. Three days prior to the start of the new season manager Sean Ray resigned his position. Assistant Mark Stapley and coach Terry White were in temporary charge. John Maggs was appointed as manager towards the end of August 2013, formerly with Crawley Town, Horsham and Crawley Down Gatwick. John Maggs was dismissed towards the end of January 2014 and replaced by former player Terry White. Two other managerial changes were made during the season when results were disappointing Towards the end of season 2014/15 the club changed hands when a new board of directors was appointed. Garry Wilson was appointed as manager during the close season with Danny Bloor joining as assistant manager. Garry Wilson and Danny Bloor stepped down at the end of the 2015/16 season to be replaced by former United player Darren Hare. After an excellent season which ended with a play-off semi-final defeat, on penalties, away to Dorking Wanderers, Darren Hare resigned. His replacement was Adam Hinshelwood who once again had to rebuild the side as a number of players moved on. Adam resigned during September to take on the managers role at Worthing FC and was replaced by his assistant Chris Agutter who remains at the helm to this day.
Whitehawk — A Brief History -The club was founded as the Second World War ended in 1945 as Whitehawk & Manor Farm Old Boys. The original name relates to the Brighton Boys' club, from Whitehawk and the adjoining Manor Farm estate, that wished to continue to play football but were too old to play in the youth league. One of the club's founders, Ron Powell, entered the new team in the Brighton Junior Cup (League) for their first season. Home games were played on the council pitches in East Brighton Park. In their first season, Whitehawk & MFOB did the league and cup double.

Boyed by a home win against Solihull Borough in their last match and playing against a side they had already beaten earlier in the season, the Brickies were quietly confident having lost just one of their last five league games and now away from the drop zone. Former England B international Kevin Bond had offered to help out Sittingbourne and played his first game of the season. He was drafted in to replace the injured Roy Clarke. Also out was 17-year old full back Phil Walker with an achilles injury. So manager John Ryan turned to his former Norwich teammate to help him out. The 37-year old Bond was playing for nothing other than travelling expenses.
Early in the second half Planck was clattered and the guilty culprit went unpunished. This seemed to give an aggressive licence to the home side who twice upended Simon Beard. Buglione’s legitimate penalty claim was denied and soon after he saw his header sail over the bar. Beard squanderered a good chance, when with plenty of time he saw his rushed shot go wide. The game was put beyond the reach of the visitors in the 82nd minute when Andy Blondrage conceded a penalty which was converted by Russell, despite goalkeeper Efrem Ebbli getting a hand to the ball.

Paul Martin—Famous People I Have Met My Granddaughter asked me the other day whether, because I am so old, I had met any famous sportsmen or sportswomen in my life. I assumed she was discounting people I had watched at football or other sporting events or on TV but rather those I had made some sort of contact or interaction with. Now the list I have come up with is fairly short and I am pretty sure that a lot of readers of this article would have much greater claims to fame than me. However, for what it is worth, I shall continue. I need to start in 1965 when my school 4th Year football team, without notice, spent the day on our school field with Jimmy Hill, then Manager of Coventry City and writing a book on football coaching (Jimmy Hill not me). For those of you who may not know, Jimmy played for Brentford and Fulham, became Chairman of the PFA, was instrumental in the abolition of the maximum wage, and became a long term football pundit. There were hundreds of photos taken on the field that day and I was pleased to find my photo in the published book and, better still, I do possess a copy, picked up at WH Smith’s for the princely sum of 6 shillings (30p) some months later. Sadly, I am unable to share my photo with you at this time (can’t find the book!) but I do notice it is still available on Amazon imported from the USA for 38 dollars! “Improve Your Soccer” Penguin Handbooks. In, I guess, the late 60’s, I had a surprisingly long conversation with Bill Nicholson, the Tottenham Manager, whilst running the Enfield Programme Hut (me not Bill Nicholson). He asked me all sorts of questions about the Enfield players and the opposition and even bought me a cup of tea. I still have that plastic cup (not really). You may remember David Vine from Grandstand, Ski Sunday, Question Of Sport and Superstars. He did a week of compering some roadshows for the company I worked for at the time and I had the pleasure of travelling round the UK with him - such a nice man and full of stories and anecdotes. Some years later, the roadshows were repeated with Trevor Brooking as the host. Trevor had recently retired and was perhaps seeking a career in public speaking. Another extremely nice man but I think he soon realised that this was not the career for him. In 1990, I was involved in the sponsorship of a game at Deepdale between Preston North End and Tranmere Rovers (0-4) in the old Division 3. I had the privilege after the game of spending some time in the boardroom with Sir Tom Finney, one of our greatest ever players. He spent his entire career at Preston, making nearly 500 appearances, twice Footballer of the Year, 76 England caps and 30 England goals. A true gentleman. And that is about it. I told you there wasn’t much interaction with the sporting hierarchy; a bit disappointing really. Oh, I have also had conversations with (Sir) Ben Ainslie and Denise Lewis at an Olympic sponsorship event, spent some time talking to Neil Ruddock during a FA Vase game in Suffolk and passed the time of day with Mick Mills in the Gents at the Services on the M3 (but that’s another story!).

A series of articles by the author of the book ‘A History and Guide to Football Programmes’ describing how programmes have changed over a century-and-a-half of Association Football. These articles will appear throughout the season in the Sittingbourne FC programme.
War Time Finals Team Sheets It took football programmes about 20 years to recover from the Second World War, because it was not until the mid-1960’s that programmes returned to the size and standard they enjoyed before 1939. The main set-back came with war-time paper rationing, and it is to the credit of most clubs that they continued to publish something during these difficult years, albeit it usually amounted to little more than a teamsheet.
The initial confusion of early war-time football saw clubs issued greatly slimmed-down issues, dropping to 8 pages for regional league matches in 1939/40. As the exigencies of war hit home, the programme shrunk again, to single or folded sheet issues. These constituted poor value for money for the buyers - they were invariably priced at 1d, only half the price of standard 1930’s issues which were certainly more than twice the size! A prime example of this was the excellent Queen’s Park Rangers programme of 1939/40, 8 pages with a striking cover, which a year later was a single sheet with teams on one side and results/fixtures on the reverse. Sheffield Wednesday settled for a single sheet (printed both sides) with barely a paragraph of text - in common with other programmes of the era, priority was given to team lines, results and fixtures, league tables and half-time scoreboard. Doncaster Rovers started off with a large size 4 -pager, but after a year dropped down to a single sheet, while Huddersfield Town and Leeds United strove manfully to sustain a 4-page (folded sheet) programme. Manchester United settled for a single sheet which contained only results/fixtures and team lines, and the same format was used, with the inclusion of some text and a little more information, by Millwall and Newcastle United. One has to admire the dogged determination to carry on despite the enormous disruption of the war, exemplified by these programmes. Team lines were obviously subject to great change as players came and went from the armed forces, or were available from reserved occupations, and guest players abounded. Not the least of the attraction of these programmes is the existence of famous names in some unlikely team lists. Those few advertisers who remained in the greatly slimmed down programmes are fascinating. The 4-page Sunderland programme of 1944/45, for instance, carried four adverts - George Younger’s Prize Medal Ales, “Shop at Binns for everything. Walk around any time - no obligation”, a Consulting Optician, and a local store which sold Radios, Bicycles and Prams, Re-conditioned Pianos and Utility Furniture.
Match Reports Velocity Trophy, Tuesday 5th November Sittingbourne were the better team in the early 2019, Sittingbourne 3 Cray Valley PM 2, att stages of the game but Chichester’s Josh 73 Clark went the closest in these early moments rattling the Brickies cross bar. A much changed Cray Valley PM side were beaten in the Velocity Trophy but in the end victory for the Brickies wasn’t enough to proceed to the next stage of the competition.
Sittingbourne were on top throughout the game. They scored after just 5 minutes when a great run by Josh Oliver that began in his half ended in him firing home. Sid Sollis doubled the lead with a header on 28 minutes. A somewhat harsh penalty, converted by Ryan Flack on the half hour gave Valley a lifeline. Sollis increased the lead on 56 minutes with another header. Valley won another penalty with 9 minutes left, Emiliano Hysi converted, but it was not enough for them. League, Saturday 9th November Sittingbourne 2 Herne Bay 0, att 208 The game was preceded by a short Armistice day minutes silence which was impeccably observed. Bay Started well and Jordan Perrin in the Brickies goal was kept busy. A fantastic sliding tackle by Tommie Fagge saved the day for the Brickies on 25 minutes and the scores were level at the break.
It was Sittingbourne however who took the lead when on 33 minutes thanks to a piece of magic by tommie Fagg who waltzed round a number of players before coolly firing past keeper Steven Mawthorpe. Sid Sollis had a great chance to double the lead 10 minutes later with a 1 to 1 with Mawthorpe but the keeper was able to push the effort away. The second half was a scrappy affair with Chichester looking dangerous and they made their pressure count on 58 minutes when Connor Cody fired past Jordan Perrin in the Brickies goal. Chichester could have snatched a win when in the final quarter they won a penalty but Perrin saved Matt Axell’s poor penalty. League Saturday 23rd November 2019, Sittingbourne 2 VCD Athletic 1, att 138
Another penalty save from Jordan Perrin made sure that Sittingbourne defeated a VCD Athletic team with high aspirations of promotion.
Neither team created much in the early stages but it was Sittingbourne who drew first blood when on 25 minutes Chris Barnard set up Sid Sittingbourne came out strongly from the Sollis who from just outside the area found the break and in the first minute of the new half net with a great shot. The first half was comresilience from Kane Phillip won the ball for Josh Oliver who scored his second in as many ing to a close when Tommie Fagg doubled the lead.
