Trevor Strand returns to the Green

Former Green midfielder Trevor Strand has returned to the club to work alongside Dave Smith and the Saturday firsts squad. Having left Sunday side Mersham last week due to work commitments, Trevor is quickly back into action and his experience will be a welcome addition to the management staff. Forty-nine-year-old Trevor, who previously managed the Green’s Under 16s with Derek Prior, was formerly attached to Kennington where he had considerable success building a strong reserve team. Patron Dave Homewood said tonight: “I have known Trevor for a very long time, he used to play for me, and we have the same attitude towards taking our football seriously. He is well aware that his new challenge is to help Dave get the first team back into the Premier”. ‘Strandy’ will be a spectator at training on Tuesday as he finds his feet but will be at the clubhouse to meet players afterwards. In time, Trevor wants to become involved with the other managers on the coaching side at the club.
