FROM THE BOARDROOM

STEVE HARVEY

The League is saddened to hear of the death of the Hamworthy United’s Steve Harvey.

His interest in football probably began with his Dad and Grandad who used to run a local team called St Hellier Athletic. It is not known if Steve actually played for his Dad’s side, or not in his playing days. He also became and still is an A.F.C.Wimbledon Supporter, yes there are some.

Steve soon got involved in the local football after moving down to Dorset. He then went on to manage Corfe Mullen F.C in the Dorset Saturday League playing on a piece of ground owned by the Wessex Water Company which he turned into a football pitch.

Almost single handed he maintained the pitch as well as running the team. After a while this became too much, and so they returned to playing at the Rec. Steve went on to manage Lytchett Red Triangle and Bournemouth Sports before deciding to quit managing.

LEAGUE ROUND-UP

After a series of disappointing results AFC Portchester have parted ways with Manager Mick Catlin and Assistant Lee Molyneaux. Applications for the new role have already been invited, and there has been plenty of interest,

Chairman Paul Kelly has already received a large number of applications but he is urging anyone interested in the role to email their application in as soon as possible. The Hammers did try to get him to join the Club, but at that stage he was not ready to do so, but he did later accept an offer to become a Director of Poole Town FC. He then joined HUFC as Chairman for a while and then went to Wimbone Town as a Director.

Steve returned to Hamworthy United when it was going through a very tough period due to several members of the Committee having retired, or had left the Club. It was in serious danger of folding through lack of volunteers. He steadied the ship and together with the then President David Manuel threw himself into the planning and building of the new clubhouse. However, Steve not only oversaw the building of it, but spent hours doing a lot of the work himself.

Steve had a clear vision of where he wanted to take the Club, but had to resign due to his fatal condition. There is no doubt without Steve Harvey’s hard work and drive, Hamworthy United would be all the poorer, making him a True Hamworthy Legend.

Marty Wallace has been installed as interim manager ahead of the game yesterday against Blackfield & Langley, he’ll be assisted by the rest of the first team coaching staff and under23s manager Mark Dugan.
