Martyn Clarke

My association with the club began when my stepson Ian Gedny joined the Hornets a few seasons ago. I had been programme editor at East Bergholt previously and was keen on photographing the action. Promotion to the Ridgeons Premier Division persuaded me to offer my services as a website manager and the results are here for you to read and I offer my enthusiastic support to any task that is required.
