The Fleet’s Josh Wright has been named as the Enterprise National League South manager of the month for October.

The National League explained the reasoning for the Fleet boss’s win:

“Josh Wright transformed Ebbsfleet United’s standing start to a quickfire challenge at the top.

“They even spent some time at the summit after climbing from 21st thanks to six fantastic league wins over Folkestone Invicta, Hampton & RB, AFC Totton, Weston-super-Mare, Maidenhead and the then-league leaders Maidstone United.

“After a hectic period, he was nominated for the second month running.

“Wright saw his side pick up more points than anyone else in the division in October – 19 from eight games.

“The Fleet scored 23 goals along the way and were never once behind in six of those matches.

“He saw off competition from Brian Dutton (Salisbury) Mark Cooper (Chelmsford City) and John Askey (Truro City) to secure the award.”

The player of the month award went to Truro City’s Tyler Harvey, although the Fleet’s Lennon Peake was on the shortlist for his impressive showing throughout the busy month in question.

The manager of the month award is Josh Wright’s second, having landed the same award just under a year ago in December 2025. Everyone at the club congratulates Josh and all his management and backroom staff on a truly team effort!
