All Regent teams face away days tomorrow with the First Team travelling to play Maldon & Tiptree.

Brightlingsea Regent make the short journey to face Maldon & Tiptree tomorrow in a local derby for their latest league game. The 33rd game of the season at Maldon & Tiptree who have links with Colchester United this season sees the two sides meet in the return fixture after Regent won the game at North Road 1-0 with a Luke Read goal being enough to gain the three points in a tight game.
The Manager at the time for Maldon, David Wright has since left the club to become Colchester United Assistant Manager and this was the second Manager the Jammers have lost to League football after Kevin Watson left to become Assistant Manager at League 2 Stevenage, a job he has recently left.
The new Manager is Steve Ball who has previously won the Ryman League North title as Assistant Manager at Leiston, a club he later went on to Manage. The new Manager has made some notable additions to the squad since joining with Sam Newson from Needham Market and Joe Francis from Leiston joining and in the past 48 hours has added three more signings with Curtis Haynes-Brown from Macclesfield Town, Tarik Moore-Azelle who lists Arsenal amongst his former clubs and the loan signing of Cemal Ramadam from Ipswich Town further bolstering their talented squad.
