After returning to pre-season training on Saturday 24th June, James Webster will take the R's to Little Oakley, Eastern Counties League new boys, in our first friendly of the season. Following this, we will entertain Chelmsford City of the National League Conference South before heading to Long Melford also members of the Eastern Counties League.
Brightlingsea Regent will then travel to neighbours FC Clacton and Brantham Atheltic of the Eastern Counties League, then hosting AFC Sudbury who were relegated last season from the Isthmian Premier Division.
In late July, early August, Webster will take his side to face four teams from the Isthmian Division One North, Brentwood Town, Bury Town, Bowers & Pitsea and then finishing off with Tilbury.
