As mentioned in the local press this week, the Magpies have been making some changes both on and off the pitch in order to regain the identity that has served us so well and had been lost for a period this mid-season. Yet another step has been made in that direction with Max Bickell becoming the fifth signing since the turn of the year. This is no step into the unknown though as Max was an integral part of our Academy side last year and his blossoming form saw him break into the U18 Sussex County FA side that reached the national final as well as make his first team debut in the final home game of last season (above) against Eastbourne United.

​Max is a centre forward with a great deal of talent and potential to develop further still and his popularity within the Club ensures that all are keen to see him do well in a side that seeks to have a strong second half of the season. Welcome back, Max
