Mark first joined the Club in the Summer of 2018 and has become an integral part of the Management Team in this time. Since the departure of Danny Chapman, Mark has stepped into the role and has moved quickly to bring in a hugely experienced coach in the form of David Collis (above left) to assist him.

Mark has extensive experience at this level having previously taken control of an AFC Hornchurch side that secured promotion into the Isthmian Premier League, so management experience at this level is in no short supply.

Mark is delighted to have been given the opportunity to continue the work that Danny had started this season and has promised his full focus in the weeks and months ahead.

Having worked alongside Danny for the last 18 months, Mark has a very good knowledge of the current squad and this has formed a big part of the decision that has been taken at this time.

Marks appointment of David re-ignites a previous working relationship. David’s CV includes:

Working his way through the ranks at Charlton Athletic before moving on to Barnet and then an extensive playing career at non-league level with the likes of Ford United, East Thurrock United, Hertford Town, Thurrock, Bishop’s Stortford, Grays Athletic, Ware and latterly AFC Hornchurch where he worked alongside Mark as Player-Coach.

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome David to the Club and look forward to working with our new Management Team going forward
