George Borg returns to joint manage Braintree along with their club captain who becomes player-manager.

Seems many years since playing for the Darts, I think as a strong full-back with a few goals. Googling to check my memory, I find him described as "of Maltese origin, a no-nonsense tough tackling left full back" who would have been with us in the late 70s/early 80s probably under John Still. Various manager jobs in non-league from 1986, perhaps most successful at Aldershot. Also a spell suspended from all football for aggravated misconduct.

Jay Bacon is one of at least 14 new players brought into Romford as part of the Tamplin revolution there (he also sacked their long-term manager of about 10 years loyalty, before installing himself!). Don't know Jay, but he was on our bench in the first two FA Cup games this season.

Phil Roberts has also ended up there. Scored a screamer today.

Glen Tamplin must be paying good wages at Romford for Cunnington and Phil Roberts to go there. I noticed they had a crowd of 500 which was 400 more than their normal attendance. I remember when Romford were a big club in the Southern League and visiting their old ground at Brooklands which I seem to recall had a speedway track around it, all long gone.

It has to be stressed that this game was free entry and a free pint!

“I've got an £8,000 squad but it's costing me only £3,000 because I've got players on loan who are costing me £100 and are being paid at clubs like Dartford or Bromley and other clubs".

Like who?
