Spence new in the Bees goal

Basildon United have announced the signing of goalkeeper Max Spence, and gave him a debut in Saturday's clash with leaders Tilbury. He had a fine first half, his side two-nil up, but had rather more work to do after the break as the Dockers hit back with three!

Max made the move from Essex Senior League side Barking. He kept a clean sheet ten times in sixteen matches last season, and has already played seventeen times this season, including in FA Cup matches against Redbridge and Gorleston- the first of which brought his side another clean sheet and a giantkilling.
