WAYNE BROWN

WELCOME BACK TO PARK DRIVE FOR TONIGHT’S VELOCITY TROPHY FIXTURE AGAINST HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS. I’D LIKE TO GIVE STEVE AND HIS TEAM A WARM WELCOME, ALONG WITH THEIR SUPPORTERS AND TONIGHT’S MATCH OFFICIALS. I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A SAFE TRIP HOME AFTER THIS EVENING’S MATCH. Since our last home game against Great Wakering Rovers, we have had almost two weeks off which has probably come at a good time for the group, although December is going to be extremely busy with games now coming thick and fast. Our performance against Great Wakering was disappointing and I felt we just didn’t turn up and we were not at the races. We got punished by two quick goals in the first half and full credit to Wakering, as they deserved the three points. We have also added Olu [Oluwatimilehin] and Shad [Ngadu] to the group from Barking and Aveley respectively, and I am sure they are both players you will enjoy watching and will bring much-needed experience to our group. They have settled well and both made their debuts on Saturday at Coggeshall Town. Against Coggeshall, it was disappointing to concede the first goal in the way we did whilst the second goal took a deflection over Tommy [Dixon-Hodge] and we didn’t stay with our runners. The boys showed fantastic character to come from two goals behind to draw the game and, had we taken the chances we created, especially the two open goals, we

MALDON & TIPTREE vs HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS

would have won the game. Anyone who was at the game would know we did enough to win it, but that is the way it is going at the moment. It will change, I’m sure it will. I’m sure the lads will take a lot out of the game and will want to take it into tonight’s contest against Heybridge. On to tonight’s game and this is a competition, like all of the others, that we want to go as far as possible in. We have three home games in a row now and it’s a good opportunity for the group to entertain the supporters. A local derby always makes it more interesting and I’m sure the boys will be ready for it – we have already played Heybridge once this season and hopefully we can come out on top tonight. Being at home, it’s important that we focus on our game and I’m sure, if we stick to what we do best, we will be in a good position to progress to the next round. I hope to see you all back at Park Drive on Saturday, when Romford visit us in the Isthmian League. Keep up your brilliant support.    I hope you enjoy tonight’s game. Wayne

SATURDAY 20TH NOVEMBER | THE PITCHING IN ISTHMIAN LEAGUE NORTH | ATT: 233 Great Wakering Rovers ended Maldon & Tiptree’s four-game unbeaten run with a 2-1 win at Park Drive last month. Tommy Dixon-Hodge made his debut for the Jammers, with Wayne Brown making three changes from the previous week’s draw against Dereham Town - Martyn Stokes and Phil Brown-Bampoe returning from the start. Following a positive start to the game, the Jammers found themselves behind in the 17th minute courtesy of a penalty, following a foul from Stokes. Dixon-Hodge got a hand to the spot-kick but was unable to stop Jake GORDON’S effort from hitting the back of the net. With the momentum on their side, the visitors continued to come forward and just two minutes later they had a second. A cross from the right found Martin TUOHY in the box and he headed beyond a helpless Dixon-Hodge. The Jammers huffed and puffed as they perservered in search of a way back into the match and, eight minutes before the break, they did just that. A cross from the right from Aaron Williams-Bushell found Scott KEMP inside the six-yard area who headed home. A goal just before half-time was just what was required.

MALDON & TIPTREE vs HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS

With the words of manager Brown ringing in their ears, the Jammers started the second half on the front foot and had an early appeal for a penalty waved after away, with the referee disagreeing that Bradley McClenaghan was fouled in the box. Brown’s men continued to drive forward, but were struggling to test the visiting goalkeeper and, in truth, were limited to efforts from range. Shortly afterwards Stokes had a powerful effort cleared off the line, with the Wakering defence continuing to stand tall against the home attack. As the match drifted towards the final whistle, Maldon were reduced to ten men when Charlee Hughes was shown a second yellow card and sent off, for a late challenge on the halfway line, and the visitors took all three points.

Wayne Brown has added midfielders Olumide Oluwatimilehin and Shad Ngandu to his Jammers squad in the past week.

the group,” Brown said. “Olu will be a great addition.”

Dominant midfielder Oluwatimilehin makes the move to Maldon from league rivals Barking, where he has been since the summer. Formerly of Wingate & Finchley, Hornchurch, Lewes, Kingstonian and Braintree Town, the midfielder netted twice in ten outings for Barking this term. “We have been looking for a dominant midfielder to join

Ngadu makes the switch from Aveley having previously featured at this level with Brentwood Town, Waltham Abbey and Great Wakering Rovers. The attacking playmaker has an eye for goal and Brown was pleased to secure his signing: “Shad is a player I have admired for a long time and he has a wealth of experience. He is a goalscorer who will also create opportunities for others around him.”

U’S RECALL TERRY Colchester United have recalled defender Frankie Terry from his loan spell with the Jammers. The youngster appeared four times for Wayne Brown’s side, netting once in the 3-3 draw at Dereham Town.

SATURDAY 4TH DECEMBER | THE PITCHING IN ISTHMIAN LEAGUE NORTH | ATT: 132 Despite finding themselves two goals behind, Maldon & Tiptree battled back to leave Coggeshall Town with a point thanks to a dramatic injury-time leveller at the weekend. The Jammers dominated for the majority of the opening twenty minutes and should have really been ahead. Scott Kemp had both chances, with the first a header that went over the bar and his second courtesy of a brilliant cross from Aaron WilliamsBushell. Tommy Dixon-Hodge made a good reaction save to deny Jermain Francis in the Maldon goal, whilst Phil Brown-Bampoe watched on as his deflected effort sailed just over the bar at the other end. In the 25th minute, the hosts took the lead. A ball over the top from Francis found the dangerous Alex Teniola, as the Jammers defence backed away, TENIOLA found himself with more space then expected and took his shot early, as it curled beyond the full reach of Dixon-Hodge who was only able to parry it into the corner of the net. Just eight minutes later and the hosts had their second. With the Jammers unable to clear their lines, Isaac SKUBICH was on hand inside the penalty area and his deflected effort flew beyond Dixon-Hodge and into the back of the net. Brown’s boys responded well though and were denied what appeared to be a clear goal shortly after, as Shad Ngandu’s long-range effort rattled off the cross bar but was deemed to have not crossed the line. Just like the week before, the Jammers pulled a goal back shortly before the half-time break. A cross from the left found Kemp who leaped well and, though his header rebounded off the crossbar, it fell at the feet of Shomari BARNWELL who pounced on the loose ball to poke it home.

MALDON & TIPTREE vs HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS

As half-time approached, Barnwell had the ball in the net once again after more smart play from Williams-Bushell, but the goal was ruled out by the assistant referee’s raised flag. The Jammers had it all to do in the second half. Frankie Terry was replaced at the break by Malachi Napa which resulted in a change of shape for the Jammers, with Kemp displaying his versatility by filling in at full-back. The Jammers dominated possession throughout the second half, with Coggeshall unable to escape their half for the main, but their defence stood tall with Cafer yet to make a save. As Brown’s side continued to throw bodies forward, their final-third entries continued to rise and Williams-Bushell had a brilliant chance to equalise. A ball from Brown-Bampoe into the box caused confusion in the hosts’ area, but despite Cafer missing the ball under pressure, Williams-Bushell was unable to convert into an empty net from close-range. At the other end, Dixon-Hodge was called on once more and made a fantastic reactive save to deny Teniola his second goal. In the 90th minute, Maldon had the equaliser their performance warranted. A cross from the right evaded everyone until NAPA was in the right place at the right time as the ball rebounded off his chest and flew into the top corner beyond Cafer. With what was almost the last kick of the game, the Jammers nearly found a winner, a cross from Brown-Bampoe evading everyone including Cafer but drifting beyond the far post.

MALDON & TIPTREE

CLUB HISTORY

In 2009, Ed Garty took over the ownership of Maldon Town from Michael Kirkham, whilst still in charge of running Tiptree United and installed Alan Brockhouse as Maldon Town’s new chairman. Following the takeover, Colin Wallington returned for a second spell in charge of Maldon Town, leaving his post as Tiptree United manager immediately. Colin previously managed Maldon Town from 2003 until 2007, having achieved promotion in the 200506 via the play-off final. Having left Maldon in 2007, Colin went on to manage Tiptree United where he achieved promotion winning the

MALDON & TIPTREE vs HEYBRIDGE SWIFTS

Eastern Counties Division One title in the 2007/08 season. Until the conclusion of the 2009/10 season both Maldon Town & Tiptree United played their home games at Park Drive, under a ground share arrangement. In the summer of 2010, Maldon Town & Tiptree United amalgamated to form, Maldon & Tiptree Football Club, under the ownership of Ed Garty. As a result of the amalgamation, Tiptree United withdrew from the Essex Senior League, resulting in the club’s last ever fixture being a 3-1 defeat against Enfield 1893 on 24 April 2010. Maldon & Tiptree took

the place of Maldon Town in the Isthmian Division One North. Following the retirement of Colin Wallington, Assistant Manager, Brad King and Glen Knight were appointed as the clubs JointManager. As the pair’s first managerial role, the new club witnessed wholesale changes with only a handful of players remaining who finished the season with Maldon Town and Tiptree United, respectively. The 2010-11 campaign saw the new club remain in or around the play-off positions for the majority of the season, finishing in eighth

place to finish the season with sixty-three points. Despite the high turnover of players, the good standard of football was maintained and it was in the end, a disappointing end to the season, for the club to fall away in the later stages of the season when suspensions and injuries eventually took their toll to leave the club frustratingly short of the play-off positions at the end of April. The 2011-12 season, proved to not be so successful and in November 2011, King and Knight were relieved of their duties with immediate effect. Ex-Charlton professional Mike Flanagan was appointed as Caretaker Manager and remained in place until the end of the season, steering the club to a respectful mid-table finish, managing thirty-three games and finishing with a win percentage of 49.12%. At the start of the 2012-13 campaign, Ex-Stansted & Redbridge boss Terry Spillane was appointed as Manager, and Mike Flanagan departed the club. The change of management, once again brought wholesale changes with the playing squad. Ex Tiptree United manager, Jody was brought to the club as Terry’s Assistant Manager. After a fantastic and unbeaten start to the season, the club found themselves at the top of the table but an incredible run by eventual Champions Grays Athletic meant Maldon had to settle for a place in the play-offs – Terry’s side remained unbeaten until Boxing Day, when they lost away from home against local rivals Heybridge Swifts. Disappointment came in the play-off final however when they lost a two goal lead to draw with Thamesmead Town, who thenwent on to win the final,on penalties.

After a disappointing end to the previous season, Terry Spillane oversaw more wholesale changes in the playing squad, including the departure of Assistant Manager, Jody Brown. Despite the changes, Maldon finished in ninth position with seventy-six points, winning twenty-one games. More changes to the playing staff, resulted in poor start to the 2014-15 season, and the club parted ways with Spillane in September 2014, with Chairman, Ed Garty takeover as Caretaker Manager, for three games. At the end of September 2014, Alan Kimble was appointed as manager and remained in charge for the remainder of the season, however the side struggled and more changes in the playing staff occurred. Maldon finished the season in nineteenth place with only forty-nine points. During the 2014-15 season, Media Officer at the time, Richard Buckby ran a competition for supporters to vote for a club nickname, with the options The River Boys, The Marshmen, The Mudmen and The Jammers available. The vote took place in January 2015 and was featured on National Radio station, TalkSport, with the The Jammers winning the vote with over 50% and being confirmed as the clubs new nickname. Following the completion of the 2014-15 season, the club linked with Colchester United and the two clubs formed close ties, which resulted in ex Ipswich Town midfielder, David Wright being appointed as First Team Manager. Wright remained in charge until December 2015 as he was appointed Assistant Manager of Colchester United. Liam Bailey took charge of the First Team on

a temporary basis, only managing one game, which finished four-all against Tilbury on Boxing Day in 2015. Moving into 2016, exLeiston Manager, Steve Ball was appointed First Team Manager and steered the club to a respectable finish in the league table climbing to seventh place, only missing out on the play-off places by nine points. In the closed season, a change of Management at Colchester United saw Steve Ball appointed as their Assistant Manager, leaving his position of Maldon & Tiptree Manager as a result. Ex-Manchester City midfielder, Kevin Horlock was then appointed as First Team manager ahead of the 2016-17 campaign and for the majority of the season, the Jammers sat at the top of the table before slipping away to finish in second place. Horlock’s side managed to reach the play-off final, however lost to Thurrock one-nil. The following campaign was not quite as successful for Horlock, with Maldon finishing just outside the play-off places in seventh place, with sixty-nine points. After managing 112 games, Kevin Horlock departed in the closed season and was replaced by ex-Colchester defender, Wayne Brown. In Brown’s first season in charge, the 2018-19 season, the Jammers finished in second place and reached the play-off final, but lost on penalties against local rivals, Heybridge Swifts. The 2019-20 season was one to remember for the club, but for the right and wrong reasons. The club achieved great things in the Emirates FA Cup. Having reached the First Round proper of the competition, Maldon beat League Two side, Leyton Orient away from home, taking over 600

fans to the home of The O’s, with the goals coming from Danny Parish and a superb solo goal from Jorome Slew. In the second round proper, Maldon were drawn against Football League side, Newport County with the game being shown live on National Television– with the Jammers only beaten by the League Two side, with a goal in stoppage time, with the game finishing 1-0. A record attendance of 1876 was recorded. However, the 2019-20 season will also be remembered for the wrong reasons. After impressive performances on the field, the Jammers found themselves top of the Isthmian Division One North, thirteen points clear with four games in hand, when disaster struck. With a global pandemic declared, as a result of Coronavirus, the league competition was formally abandoned on 26 March 2020, with all results from the season being expunged, and no promotion or relegation taking place to, from, or within the division. The club were denied a chance of promotion and forced to remain in the Division One North for the 2020-21 season.

ED GARTY STEPPED DOWN AS CHAIRMAN IN OCTOBER 2020 Following the disappointing end to the 2019-20 season, Wayne Brown remained in charge of the club and wholesale changes in the playing squad occurred again, with a number of the previous season’s squad securing transfers to clubs higher up the football pyramid. The Jammers were dealt a big blow in October 2020 when owner and Chairman Ed Garty stood down from his position with immediate effect, ending a challenging ten years at the helm. After a period of uncertainty for

the football club, General Manager Ron Dangerfield was confirmed as the new Chairman, with Richard Cowling taking ownership of the football club. Just like the 2019-20 season, the 2020-21 campaign was terminated with promotion and relegation denied for all the sides competing in the Division One North. However, prior to the curtailment the Jammers had reached the Emirates FA Cup First Round for the second successive season, this time losing to Morecambe 1-0 in front of the television cameras. Brown’s side also achieved their longest ever run in the Buildbase FA Trophy, eventually losing to Gloucester City. The Jammers were only able to play in five league games, finishing in third place before the season was curtailed. Heading in to the 2021/22 season, Wayne Brown remains in charge of the first team and is now the club’s longest-serving manager, holding the record for the most games managed in charge of Maldon & Tiptree Football Club.

BRADLEY McCLENAGHAN

AARON WILLIAMS-BUSHELL

SAM CORNISH

PHILIP BROWN-BAMPOE

Bradley is a former Leyton Orient central midfielder who was named as Orient’s 2018/19 Youth Player of the Year before joining the Jammers in the summer of 2020. He played a pivotal role in the club’s run to the Emirates FA Cup first round before losing to Morecambe. One of the team’s leaders who was an ever-present last season, he will be keen to continue his good form in 2021/22.

Williams-Bushell heads into his second season at Park Drive after impressing in the last campaign, scoring several Goal of the Season contenders. Aaron has shown his versatility whilst being at the club and will look to cement his place in Wayne’s starting eleven this term.

A familiar face to many at Park Drive, Sam rejoins once again from Colchester United. The lively central midfielder has had previous spells at Park Drive and was instrumental in the team last season that recorded our longest-ever run in the FA Trophy.

Midfielder Philip made the move to Park Drive in October after a brief stint with Barking. His previous clubs include East Thurrock United, Romford, Redbridge and Greenwich Borough

TYRELL LOWE

MALACHI NAPA

BRIAN MOSES

Lowe is an attackminded player who has previous experience with Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace. Lowe has featured for the Jammers throughout pre-season and will be keen to make a quick impression on the club’s supporters.

Malachi is an exciting and tricky forward who has previously been with Oxford United and Woking, whilst also spending time on loan at North Leigh, Hampton & Richmond Borough and Macclesfield Town. Napa made his professional debut for Oxford in 2017 in the EFL Trophy. In his youth career, Napa also spent at Reading.

Standing at an imposing 6’ 7”, Moses joined the Jammers in September 2021 from league rivals Tilbury. His previous clubs also include Basildon United and Cheshunt, where he achieved promotion scoring in both the play-off semifinal and final. Brian will certainly bring extra height and physicality to Wayne’s squad.
