1892-93

Harry Wardle, Honorary Secretary of the club, wrote a paragraph in the Friday 28 April 1893 edition of the Chelmsford Chronicle about the way Chelmsford Rovers had been treating other teams.

​

Billericay were due to host Rovers on 8 April 1893 but they did not arrive.  Mr Wardle had written to their secretary asking if they would be coming to Billericay for the match but no reply was ever received.

​

It appeared that Wickford had gone through the same treatment and that Chelmsford did not want to play away matches.  Mr Wardle advised clubs not to arrange fixtures with Rovers the following season.
