We would like to formally announce that Matthew Thomas has accepted the role of Club Secretary going forward, following the sudden passing of longtime Excelsiors stalwart and Secretary, Keith Williams in September.

In recent weeks, Matthew has offered of his time and skills to aid the club during an especially turbulent time and last night agreed to take on the mantle held by Keith for the longest time.

His first foray into this new experience for him was the creation of the club programme for the home game against Pill AFC, using the preferred format of his irreplaceable predecessor and adding his own new features to it, something that Keith himself planned to do prior to his passing.
