Hello all, you may have noticed that for the past six months or
PATRICK MACKAY OLI DENNETT so, the media set-up at the club has changed a fair bit. With
MIDFIELD STRIKER the help of my team, we have been able to put together a more
organised and structured set-up on the social media platforms
towards the back end of last season and I am constantly looking
to improve that.
Back in June, we launched a new Youtube channel ahead of the forthcoming season. Upon
following and working for the club starting back in December, I set my sights on improving the
club’s video content and that is what I hope as a team we can achieve in the 2019/20 season.
ASH HOPE ED HODGE BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?
STRIKER MIDFIELD
• Match Highlights • Interviews with Tom Killick
• Player interviews • Behind the scenes content
• “Away days” series • Programmes
Over the past season, our home fixtures have been covered excellently by “TBTV” independently
to the club. We would like to thank Tony at TBTV for his work with the club, and the highlights
SAM JACKSON ANDY FLETCHER packages he produced were really appreciated. With Tony’s availability for away fixtures limited,
and our developing ideas for full media coverage, we have taken the decision to bring the match
DEFENDER GOALKEEPING COACH highlights back in house.
The most important development in my opinion is the introduction of interviews, particularly
with Tom. For too long, the fans haven’t had access to interviews with the manager and have
often had to look towards the Bournemouth Echo quotes-led write-up for reaction. This should
no longer have to be the case. Tom has assured us of full co-operation from both himself and
the playing staff.
HARRY PHILLIPS PAUL AYLEY I would however, like to note that although I have assembled a decent sized team, none of the
GOALKEEPER KIT MANAGER media set-up are based locally to Poole and therefore the plans for video content may get off to a
slightly slow start in July and August whilst the media team are away from university. I personally
will be at all the pre-season and August fixtures though, so at the very least, there should be
interviews after each fixture. By the time you are reading this, you will hopefully have already
seen some of our work from the first pre-season outing!
As always, I want to hear from you. If you have any ideas of stuff you would like to see in terms of
TOM the media let us know. In addition, if you would like to join the media team, please don’t be afraid
to get in touch. Whether you fancy being a videographer, commentator or any other role, let me

Andy Myers MANAGER
DEVELOPMENT SQAUD
CHELSEA FC
The 45-year-old former Blues defender has spent over a decade working in various coaching roles in
the Chelsea Academy, most recently last season as lead coach for the Under-18s, as well as acting
as number two to successive coaches with the development squad. He also spent the 2016/17
campaign as assistant coach at Vitesse Arnhem.
Myers succeeded Jody Morris, another of Lampard’s newly-appointed assistants, in the role of
youth team manager last summer and guided the young Blues to a third-place league finish. After
progressing through the Academy ranks himself as a player, he made over 100 senior appearances
for us between 1991 and 1999, winning the FA Cup and Cup Winners’ Cup.
Jon Harley, who also moves up from the Under-18s after working closely with Myers last term, will
take the role of development squad assistant.
The Chelsea Academy summer schedule began with a trip to Portugal to take on
Portimonense, our youngsters will also face Lechia Gdansk, Glasgow Rangers
and Bayern Munich as part of their pre-season programme. A training camp in the
Portuguese Algarve marks the start of preparations for the 2019/20 season for our
development squad with fixtures against Swansea City, Poole Town, Newport County
and Sutton United. The visit to Rodney Parade in south Wales will mark a benefit
game for Fraser Franks, the former Chelsea Academy defender who played for
Newport this season. The 28-year-old was forced to retire from playing football in
March on medical advice because of a heart problem.
The Chelsea Academy conclude pre-season with a trip to Scotland at the start of
August, where they will take on Rangers, before the Premier League 2 campaign
begins on the weekend of Saturday 10 August. Meanwhile, our youth team are
set to travel to Poland for their overseas training camp before friendlies against
Bournemouth, Bayern and Everton.

season making it a much more appealing venue for our sponsors and guests.
With that part of the operation removed this will free up Lizzie & Phene to look
after the main clubhouse where we will be offering ‘Early Bird’ specials from
opening until 2pm. Here customers will be able to enjoy a homemade ‘dish of the
day’ (including Lizzie’s now famous steak pie) and a pint/glass of wine for £6.50. There
will be drink specials prior to each game and for spirit drinkers a club double offer will be
available throughout. Last season’s price hikes have been reversed and with BT set
to televise the lunchtime games, we will have plenty of matches available to watch
in the clubhouse prior to the Dolphin’s kick off.
The mobile catering unit which appeared towards the end of last season has
undergone refurbishment and has been equipped to offer hot & cold food and
beverages. This will help to reduce the queues at the clubhouse kiosk as well as
giving us the opportunity to offer a greater variety of choices on the menu. Amongst
new offerings will be more vegetarian choices, sausage rolls and pies, home made
soups, milkshakes and more. The wooden tea hut that has been moved to the North

HOW TODAY CAME ABOUT?
For those who aren’t regular visitors to our website you maybe
wondering how Poole Town came to land such a prestigious
fixture against a team from one of the Premier League’s giants.
It all started back in January when Chelsea contacted the club to
enquire whether they could hire our pitch to have a light training
session ahead of their forthcoming evening game against AFC
Bournemouth. Our commercial manager, Alex Pike, took up the
enquiry and negotiated this friendly as part of the deal which
will also see one of our youth teams having the opportunity of
visiting Chelsea’s Academy for a day (more of that below). With
that sorted, and amid great secrecy, Chelsea’s first team squad
including Eden Hazard, David Luiz, Willian took to the turf of the
Tatnum on a very chilly morning at the end of January. Although
the visit didn’t prove lucky for Chelsea, who lost heavily at AFCB
later in the day, it saw the start of a long winning streak at home
for the Dolphins which helped us into the play-offs.
U8’s TO VISIT CHELSEA’S ACADEMY
As mentioned above one of our teams are to benefit from an
invitation to visit Chelsea’s Academy on a date to be agreed
later this year. In recognition for the work he has done for the
youth section, and in particular the work he has put into the
ptfckids.co.uk website and social media platforms, Andy White
and his U8’s side have been offered this opportunity. We hope
they enjoy what should be a wonderful day out and a big thank
you to Joe Edwards and Kevin Campanello at Chelsea for making
this happen.
26 I POOLE TOWN FC V CHELSEA XI 20TH JULY 2019 POOLE TOWN FC V CHELSEA XI 20TH JULY 2019 I 27History Looking back... Formed in 1890, Poole joined the Dorset League in 1896,then the Hampshire League in 1903. Poole joined the Western League in 1923. In 1926 the club turned professional joining the Southern Football League, Eastern Division. The 1926-27season saw the club's best FA cup run in its history. They reached the third round and played Everton losing 3–1 at Goodison Park. Poole re-joined the Western league in 1930 and stayed there until 1957. In 1933 Poole moved into Poole Stadium. They became known as Poole Town in 1934. In 1994 the Dog Track was widened making the centre green too small for a regulation pitch. Poole Town were obliged to move on and find a new home. Poole Town shared a ground with Hamworthy United. In the 1995-96 season Poole lost 39 consecutive matches, equalling the record set by Stockport County in 1977, winning just 1 point from 42 league matches Poole Town were relegated from the Southern League to Hampshire league Division One, sharing a ground with Holt United. In October 2000, Poole began playing at Tatnam, now Oakdale Junior School. They subsequently built a permanent barrier around the pitch, hardstanding, floodlights, dugouts, a small club shop, tea hut, licensed bar and an £80,000 stand which allowed them to be promoted into the Wessex League First Division. The 2008–09 season saw Poole win the Wessex Premier title and Dorset Senior Cup. In the 2009–10 season Poole Town sold Charlie Austin to Swindon Town for an undisclosed sum. During the 2010–11 season Poole Town won the Wessex league Premier Division for the third consecutive season and reached the semi-final of the FA Vase and the Fourth Qualifying Round of the FA Cup. In contrast to previous seasons, the club were granted promotion to the Southern League after FA agreed to them staging Southern League football at Tatnam. The 2012–13 season saw the club promoted as champions of Southern League Division One South and West. The club completed the treble that season. 2013–14 season saw Poole miss out on the playoffs by just one point. The 2014–15 season saw Poole Town win the Southern League Cup, but missed out on the Championship on the last day of the season losing 3–2 at home to Corby. The game was watched by a Tatnam record 2,203 crowd. Tatnam was upgraded again in 2013 with the dugouts moved, a new clubhouse, a third turnstile, 100 more seats, improved dressing rooms, more toilets and a new changing facility for the officials, as well as a new stand. The total upgrade cost over £200,000 and enabled promotion to the National League South at the end of the 2015-16 season. Poole competed near the top of the National League South in their first season but were ineligible for promotion due to a lack of seating. Poole went on to finish fifth. Poole struggled throughout the 2017- 18 season, finding themselves on the final day relegated to the Southern League South. The 2018-19 season was a successful one with Poole Town winning the Dorset Senior Cup and finishing 5th in the league only to lose to Met Police in the final of the play offs. Poole Town operates with 32 Youth Teams, Under 18’s, Development Squad, Two Ladies sides, Walking Football for the over 50’s and a Disability That Counts Section and have placed ourselves at the hub of our local community. 28 I POOLE TOWN FC V CHELSEA XI 20TH JULY 2019 POOLE TOWN FC V CHELSEA XI 20TH JULY 2019 I 29
