40 years ago the ‘Old V’s’ were playing in the Brighton league, at Patcham Place, and now look what’s gone and happened. Needless to say we are excited at the prospect of welcoming back @OfficialBHAFC to the Withdean in the Sussex senior Cup. Details to be announced.

- The V's are glad to officially announce Kev Keehan as the new 1st team manager with Ryan Storrie as assistant manager, and the club also welcomes Gary Croydon as Director of Football, as we strive to build on our first two seasons in senior football.
- Thank you tonight for the hospitality from @thebearsbbhfc Good battling performance from the V's A special mention for these two, no doubt a proud Dad.
- Tonight’s (rough) attendance, probably a few more but we lost count!! … And over 8000 streaming the game through @YourInstReplay 🤯 Thanks for your amazing support. 👏 🙏 We loved having you all at the Withdean, please come back on Friday evening for our next game, 7.45 ko
- V's out of the FA Vase against @EpsomEwell 3-1 Many thanks for the warm hospitality and good luck in the next round. Not many father and son playing a full 90 minutes in the competition. One covered every inch of the pitch in midfield, no surprises who, life in him yet.
- The v’s committee are pleased to announce Ryan Gayler will continue as first team manager after a huge effort to guide us out of relegation. Justin Jones will assist Ryan and the players are keen to build on our end of season form and start pre season training.
- Proud to have won promotion to @TheSCFL with @LittlehamptonFC and @Bexhill_United Thanks to the players & past managers @ryan_gayler @kieranridley5 @JMctiffen who started the journey to step 6 and then especially to @kevinkeehan @LawEdwardsBHA who guided us on to step 5. Amazing!
- The V’s are pleased to announce Justin Jones @jjstopphe as our first team manager. He has been at the club as a player, coach and assistant for the last 7 years and deserves this opportunity.
- Fantastic 2-1 win on the road at Pagham. From 4 points after 21 games to 24 points from the last 13 games 👏 Four wins on the bounce Well done to all the players, Kevin, Ryan and Dave
- The club are pleased to announce Ryan Gayler as first team manager with a history of both playing & coaching at the club we welcome Ryan back to the V’s⚽️ we look forward to a new era and building on the clubs foundations 🔴⚫️⚽️ @dockerillsteam @scfl
- Second best today, big thank you for the hospitality shown by BBH, great club and set up But we stay up 👏 which didn't look likely four months ago Well done to Joint Managers Dave Bridges and Ryan Gayler and every single player that has represented the club this season
- Our manager Ryan Gayler has stepped down after a year of dedicated service to the club. He deserves a well earned break from football. He has left a legacy at the v’s over the years, including keeping us up last season and I wish him all the best in his next football role.
- My wife is delighted football is back. She said she liked the way the shirts enhanced the garden! It does look a lot better I must admit.
