Prior to his time on the coast he was with Cray Valley PM, and steered the club to unprecedented heights- including an FA Vase Final, promotion to our ranks as SCEFL champions, an FA Cup run which took them to the First Round (and included a win at National League side Maidenhead United), and a Play Off Semi-Final. He left them in fifth place in Pitching In Isthmian South East.
