A trio of Dockers

Erith Town's three latest arrivals are Sairel Amali, Emmanuel ‘Manny’ Oluwasemo and Mecca Maxime-Samuels.

Sairel has previously played for a Tottenham Hotspur Academy side, and at senior level for Cockfosters and, in the Thurlow Nunn League, for Park View and May & Baker. So far as we can see, this will be his first spell as an Isthmian.

Emmanuel Oluwasemo returned to our fold in the closing stages of last season after apparently playing in Kosovo. He ended the campaign with Herne Bay, where he managed five appearances and scored a hat trick on his latest debut, in a nine-one win over Lancing.

Emmanuel previously spent the 22-23 season with three of our clubs. He was with Margate, but only played once before heading off to Bowers & Pitsea. He made twenty four appearances for the Len Salmon based side, scoring three times, before heading back to Kent to join Ashford United, where he made nine appearances. 

He was with Faversham during the 21-22 season, scoring twelve goals in forty six appearances. That followed three goals in what there was of 2020-21, and four more after joining the club from Bearsted towards the end of the curtailed 2019-20 campaign.

Mecca Maxime-Samuels was playing for Holmesdale in the SCEFL last season, where he made twenty three appearances and scored eight goals according to the FA website. He previously played Under 19 football for Welling United, and was particularly prolific during the 23-24 campaign, scoring eighteen goals from only twenty matches. We believe he's a winger, but we look forward to finding out!
