Women’s teammates #8: Jamie Quinn

Skilful attacking midfielder Jamie Quinn becomes the latest Newhaven Ladies player to spill the beans on her teammates – and tell us which biscuit needs to get out of the tin!

Who do you not want on the opposing team at training and why?

Ellie Coade. She’s just such a solid player and so hard to get past!

Someone offers you £100 for one of your teammates to hit the crossbar, who are you choosing?

[Charlotte] Markham!

Which teammate is likely to become a manager or coach after they finish playing?

I’d say Faye [Hannaford]. She’s already good at telling us what to do on the pitch, I’m sure she’d be just as good off it!

Who would be in your ultimate Newhaven Ladies 5 aside team, using current squad or coaches?

Faye, Markham, Saoirse [Burke], Sals [Emily Salusbury] and Chloe [Evans].

Which teammate is likely to incur the most fines this season? What fine will be their undoing?

Probably me, I get nutmegged about 5 times every training session by Summer [Dutton] and Saoirse.

You reach the County Cup final and it goes to penalties. Which 5 players hit the spot kicks?

Sals, Markham, Coade, Chloe and probably myself (one of the only ways I can score 🤣).

What is your favourite biscuit and which one should be banned from the biscuit tin?

Chocolate bourbons hands down the best, custard creams would be gone.

Goals galore as Dockers win again

Newhaven 6 Lingfield 3, SCLF Premier Division match #15, Saturday 8 th November 2025 Having bounced back to winning ways with a win at Lancing seven days ago, Newhaven hoped to keep the run going with a match against another team at the wrong end of the table yesterday. However, as is often the case when we seem to face strugglers, Lingfield had played themselves into a bit of form last weekend, winning 2-1 against play-off contenders Bexhill United. And it was the visitors who made the perfect start yesterday afternoon, taking the lead inside the opening minute. Needless to say, we only had ourselves to blame, as a loose pass was seized upon by Deven Reid-Solanki and the skillful winger made no mistake, driving forward before finding the bottom corner with a calm finish. Reid-Solanki was to cause us numerous problems throughout the afternoon, giving one of the best individual performances I’ve seen from an opposition player at Fort Road. Fortunately, though, he was just about...

Sizzling second-half sinks Seaford

Newhaven 5 Seaford Town 1, Sussex Senior Challenge Cup Round Two, Tuesday 7 th October 2025 Local derbies are hard enough. Local derbies when you’re coming off the back of a heavy defeat, while your opponents have plundered 10 goals in their last two games are harder still. Yet that was the challenge facing Newhaven last night as neighbours Seaford visited Fort Road in a cup competition for the second time this season. In the last meeting between the two sides back in early September, Newhaven breezed past ‘The Harriers’ 2-0 in the Peter Bentley Cup. Since that meeting, though, Seaford’s form has improved and they came into the game with four wins from seven games in all competitions. Indeed, this confidence was on show in the early stages last night as Seaford showed their willingness to go toe-to-toe with the Dockers. While Newhaven were certainly producing the tidier, more eye-catching football, it was the visitors who created the better chances; the best of the early one...

Worthing’s class shows, but Dockers brilliant in defeat

Newhaven 0 Worthing 3, Sussex Senior Cup Round 3, Tuesday 18 th November 2025 Newhaven faced one of their biggest matches in many-a-year last night when they welcomed National League South side Worthing to Fort Road in the Sussex Senior Cup. For the past few seasons, Worthing have consistently been Sussex’s top-performing non-league side, with aspirations of eventually making the jump to full professional level. This was always going to be a monumental test for a very young Dockers side; even more so given the strong starting 11 the visitors fielded, and the electric run of form they are currently on. Let’s make no bones about it, Worthing are a good side. A very good side. Right from kick-off that much was clear to see. Their speed of movement and thought - both on and off the ball - made it seem like, whether defending or attacking, they always had an extra player on the park. There’s a reason the Rebels are currently, and have for the past few seasons been, challenging for ...
