'New' boss at Witham Town

Witham Town yesterday announced the departure of Chris Taylor, and his immediate replacement with the return to the club of Garry Kimble.

Garry was in charge at Spa Road during a five year period which saw his side win the Essex Senior League in 2012. They followed that with a Play Off semi Final defeat in their first Isthmian North season, and then with a Play Off Final victory in 2013-14, a match which saw them defeat Harlow Town three-nil to earn promotion to our Premier Division. Relegation sadly followed after one season, and he departed the club in February 2016.

As a player, Garry had a fine career, playing for the likes of Charlton Athletic, Cambridge United, Doncaster Rovers, Fulham, Gillingham, Peterborough United and Dagenham & Redbridge.

As a manager, before his first spell at Town he spent time at Tilbury and Burnham, and he spent a little time in charge of Great Wakering Rovers during 2018-19.
