“Firstly, I’d like to thank the club for the opportunity of managing in the Kent County League at a young age, the support from the board was second to none and I loved every minute of it.

“Secondly, I’d like to thank the boys that played their hearts out for me. We were very inconsistent but there is some unbelievable talent of what is a young squad.

“Who knows what the future holds in these times as football is on the back of everyone’s mind.

“One thing I do know is I’ll be back in the dug-out with my assistant Rob Welling making decisions again. It might not be now, might not be soon but one day.

“I’ll always be a fan of Borden and the club and will be back to watch the lads whenever I can.”
