A big happy 70th birthday to John Mundy! Without John our club wouldn’t be in the position they are in currently with 25 youth teams and an adult side. The work he has done for the club over the last 30 years is truly under appreciated. Have a good day John 💙🤍

Conor Hilton has signed for the 2023/2024 season and comes with valuable Hampshire League experience. A lengthy centre forward, who offers much more than just goals and hopefully more than 3 appearances this season

Harry Preston signs on for the 2023/2024 season and has confirmed he’ll be around for pre-season and the first match, before he departs for Australia 🇦🇺. Great player, bags of talent, loves a beer 🍺

@harvey95243499
The top goalscorer and assist maker from last season Harvey Clark signs on for 2023/2024. A massive coup with Harvey leading the way up front last season. Wessex clubs couldn’t match what we’ve offered him 😉
Retained 🧱
@George_Sanford
George Sanford, our longest serving player has signed on for the 2023/2024 season. A powerhouse at the back who will head anything: footballs, players, goalposts and even wet floor signs ⚠️
Certain behaviour doesn’t belong in our game and it’s evident here. In fairness, the incident prior to this was a free kick, but in no way did it warrant the reaction from the opposing player. Con is lucky he lifted his leg, otherwise this could have been a very different story
Result: Crofton Saints 5-1 Dynamo Dockside.
A convincing victory at Seafield Park this afternoon.

A very competitive start and plenty of opportunities to gain some much needed match fitness before the start of the season. On our travels for all matches, as our home pitch at Seafield Park requires some maintenance.

Jake Steel has signed on the dotted line for the 2023/2024 season. After a season away, he was chomping at the bit to be back in blue and white. Let’s hope he comes back match fit from his trip to Ibiza 🇪🇸, if he wants a role in midfield
