McBride more determined
Chairman tackles new Hornchurch debut
Hornchurch chairman Colin McBride will not let the club’s debt get him down.
McBride revealed how a �10,000 demand for CCTV equipment at Bridge Avenue had been sent to the club recently.
But he remains defiant in his bid to get Urchins on to a sounder financial footing.
“It was one we didn’t know about and it’s like a kick in the teeth,” said McBride.

“We had a cleaning company asking for the �1,400 they were owed. The work was seven years ago and I wish they had been as vigilant with the people who made the debt in the first place.”
