Sunday 24th August Penn & Tylers Green ( A ) tier 6

Sounds magical.

[Father Flipper]

All good stuff so far - cannot remember the club ever properly announcing friendlies, and they always seemed to be behind closed doors. And picking some decent local opposition as well - Farnham are the division below, but in all likelihood have a bigger budget than teams in Tier 4, so will definitely be challenging for them.

Be interesting to see who is retained / wants to come back for next season.

Dave Kitson was interviewed by Ade Williams on BBC radio Berks yesterday and said that several of the Maidenhead players(tier 4) had left to stay with the new Royals manager which is good news.
Pundit Pete has interviewed Ed Jackson-Norris on the Tilehurst end.

Keeper Cherry Preisner leaves the club.

Keeper Cherry Preisner leaves the club.

And has joined Ascot (who won the division last year). Gutted Cherry has gone - best shot-stopper I've seen at the club, arguably only her height stops her playing further up the food chain. Also, her family are lovely to talk to on matchdays.

Nat Cowell has signed as player/ coach.
Ex Maidenhead Utd striker.
