It's hard enough for some of a lot of us. Let alone the brave father of our dear friend Ollie passing away. Mr and Mrs Spedding your son is loved by us all at Croydon. Once a tram always a tram
I'm still speechless. At kick off I do my normal duty in walking 2 bottles over to my keeper. Heard the whistle to start the game, looked to my left and watched the net ripple at the other end. Nobody believed what just happened. This could be the fastest goal in history.
I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. This is what a family looks like. 6months I joined the coaching staff at
@Croydon_FC
I came in not knowing anyone. I feel like I'm home. The togetherness is getting stronger.
Can not wait to get started on this adventure with Croydon fc on Wednesday. Massive sessions are planned for the keepers coming.

Picture this. A small side called
@Croydon_FC
(surrey) are in the final of the Kent senior trophy and also the London senior trophy.
Un fucking believable.
Happy to be a part this season. 1st final for the club in 15yrs. I'm extremely happy for the club, players and fans. Stuck by us during a very tough period in the first 7games. What a turnaround it's been. Thank you tram fans ding fucking ding
We start with
@Croydon_FC
who made history yesterday by reaching the final of the London Senior Trophy, the first final for the Trams in 15 years. Ryan Hall converted after just THREE SECONDS to take the lead. Evans Lamboah & Ryan Palmer helped secure the win in the second half.
A great manager, defo in my top 3 I've worked with (just) love this club, I wouldn't be at it if it wasn't for Liam. A good bunch of players who've became like family.
Croydon FC make it into another semi final yesterday after a good performance away from home. James Ayetine with a brace & Uli Fischer with the other goal.
@Gilesy_08
doing a great job for the south London club. Two big semi finals coming up but play offs will be the main goal.
What a day yesterday was for everyone at the club. Thank you to all of our fans for coming out to watch us every week.
@Gilesy_08
well done you. It's not been easy building to get where we are today.
@Croydon_FC
What an atmosphere we created yesterday away to the top of the league. All started with the players on the pitch, the management team, the subs, and most of all our always vocal supporters.
@Croydon_FC
please keep the score updates going. Unfortunately I've had to shoot off. I only came down today to show my respect to my friend and he's family. Thank you for your kind words I've been passing them on to the family. Once a tram always a tram.
What a guy. Hands down I rate this man highly. Not just as a manager but a man in general. His standards are high and his honest with players and people. Helped me a lot this season. Maybe one day we'd work together again. Good luck mate

Love this so much😍...we spoke about this as a board when we first got the gang together and here it is. Player pathway established.... Banging💥

Gaffer, we are all in this together. The are a good side come end for the season who will be around the top 6 like we will. It easily could have been a 5-5, 7-7. We keep the trams going. Ding ding
The big dig
@KarlPocock
took us into extra time yesterday with this save in the 93min. We pushed falconwood all the way. Great football throughout the game with both keepers getting motm from both sides. Would of been such a good final

Lately in life I'm starting to appreciate the really small things that makes me smile. One of them being my boy who's obsessed with Croydon. Asking one of his favourite players for a photo on his new phone. I wasn't aware he did this, thank you
@big_gkam
At ht today being 2-0 down I witnessed one of the best ht team talks I've ever witnessed. Fired the lads up and what a second half of football it was. Pulled it back to 2-2 to lose with literally the last kick of the game. Showed character
Ry's been back 3 games, first home game scored with his first touch back at the arena after many years. The amount of exposure the clubs receiving is amazing. So happy the fans got to witness something special.
#upthetrams
So happy for Liam, Capes and the lads. With 7 points from the first 7 games, who'd have thought with 9 games to go their now 4 points of making the playoffs. Up the trams
So happy
@amgballerzfc
won today and crowned champions of kent west div 3 in their first season in the Kent County league.
@sunnyboy1066
you done a superb job throughout the season
To every father out there, please do all you can to show your love to all your children. Life comes at your fast, and the sad reality is you never know when it's your time.
Men from Croydon are built different. If there was a title for a thing on Ryan's footballing career it would be "left croydon as a boy but returned as a man"
We've finally got a video of Ryan Hall scoring
@Croydon_FC
's first goal against
@CockfostersDev
in the London Senior Trophy. The goal was timed at 2.31 seconds, which we understand to be the fastest goal in senior football in the world.Can you confirm

Extremely happy to be part of this history making team in 2024. Well done

What a semi final! Well played Whitstable and all the best for the rest of the season.
Croydon are through to the final of the Kent Senior Trophy!
Really happy for everyone involved at the club. 2 cup finals and a trophy wasn't the gaffers aim, playoffs was. This is a great bonus for them all. The hard work Liam and the staff have put in, is incredible. Liam up there with my top 5 nonleague gaffers for sure
For a keeper coaching regardless if it's PSF or not to see your guys picking up another clean sheet with a very good performance, it's a great feeling.

The big dog
@KarlPocock
does it again. Massive pen save yesterday with 10mins remaining to keep the score at 1-0 amd crown
@amgballerzfc
league champions. Worked with this guy most of the season. A massive character and a great keeper too
The effort and commitment the keepers are giving me at training is unreal. We've built up a very good relationship in such a short time and their aware of the levels I can raise their game already.

1st preseason game Saturday
Today I've done something I've not wanted to do. I returned to a place that changed my life 19yrs ago. Growing up I was involved I'm gang related activities. Ii turned my that day when 2 of my friends lots their life's in front of my very own eyes. It could have been me.
Name: Hugo Webb
Age: 19
Location: SE London | Kent
Position: Goalkeeper
Previous Clubs: Cray Wanderers (current), VCD, Erith Town, Kings Hill
Level looking for: Currently with Cray Wanderers and looking for Loan/Dual Reg. Step 6 and above.
Out of everything's paths I crossed this season. This man here we call "THE KING" has been a fucking Saint. The vibe he brings alone to any changing room. From the moment I met him made me feel at home. One of the most committed men in any football level. No one like the king
Oi the goal yesterday to win the game was a bullet. The keeper got a full hand to it too. It's was just to powerful. Scenes on the pitch, in the club house and the coach journey home. Merry Christmas to all our trams family.

So many shit managers getting decent roles it's not even a joke. Come Christmas there will be so many "I'd like to thank everyone at the club and wish them all the best" fuck off
Been struggling so much of late, was admitted hospital with mental health issues, on another extremely long road to recovery. I can't give it like I tried too. I hope I never get in the situation I was in 2/3 weeks ago to anyone suffering mentally speak out please.
It was a great day yesterday seeing the travelling trams again. We had a game plan and the lads discipline was key. The depth we are having with many joined us from the u23s was a joy to watch. Young Andrew making a senior debut. Boys turn into men very fast in football.
Well done
@Falconwood_FC
a very good set up you guys have, a game of 2 half's for sure. If we don't have a game on the final we will try get down to support. All the best from Amg
Proper gaffer this one is. As a team it's like a full-time job big maddog, the wizard and I what a turn around from the start of where performances wasn't match results. How the table has turnt
No training for me this evening with the
@amgballerzfc
lads, fasting for surgery from 2130 this evening. Hopefully, recovery goes well so I can get down to watch Saturday
@Kwajotweneboa
I've got a temporary accommodation property with lambeth but based in Croydon. My flat has been deemed unsafe by the electrician as there is a current running through the sink so I have no water as I'm at risk of electrocution. Emailed them numerous times with no reply
Diogo Costa, just wow. It's very rare that you see a penalty shootout won with the keeper saving the first 3 pens to win the game. People will learn one day, keepers can win you games too
@Gilesy_08
@Croydon_FC
As long as we keep working the boys hard at training results will keep coming. We've been behind you all the way gaffer and will continue to be through the good times and back. In Gilesy we trust

boys go get the win please. I will Constantly be checking my phone
Some goal to grab all 3 points last league game of the season. Nobody would have put us in the position we are now with the bad start we had. I came to
@Croydon_FC
this season and met some great people from fans, players and staff.

To be fair to gas their a very decent Sunday side. I've met lots of their players once or twice through games on Saturdays. Hold your heads high and move on mate
