This Tuesday evening (16/08), we travel to fellow Essex side Brightlingsea Regent in our first away game of the new Isthmian Premier season.
The R's began their season away at Carlsharlton Athletic on Saturday, suffering a narrow 2-1 defeat in South London. Meanwhile, we kicked off our campaign on Saturday but also suffered a defeat to Horsham, going down 3-1 to the visitors at the Movie Starr Stadium, with Evans Kouassi's second half strike only a consolation in the end.
Both sides will be looking to bounce back from their opening day results, with the Gulls seeking to earn their first points of the season on the road. R's manager Brett Munyard counted one former Gull in his team on Saturday in the form of Zack Littlejohn, who moved over with Munyard from White Ensign last season to help keep Regent in the Isthmian Premier for their 5th successive season. Former Canvey winger Kane Gilbert is also part of the R's first team.
Our only recent meeting with Brightlingsea came in an FA Trophy 1st Round clash back in 2018. Regent came out 1-0 winners in a close match at Park Lane.
We hope to see a strong contingent from the Island come to back Brad Wellmen and his team tomorrow night. Good luck to the Gulls!
