He continued that form last season, netting 15 times and finishing as Chesham’s top scorer once again. Over the years he has also played for a number of other clubs, including Maidenhead United, Ascot United, Billericay Town, Bracknell Town and Hampton & Richmond.

The managers
Chesham are one of the few clubs operating with joint managers as James Duncan and Michael Murray are a long-standing pair. They won promotion with Potters Bar Town and did the same at Chesham two seasons ago. They are now in their seventh season with the Generals.
