Whatever Happened To... Jamie Cade
Cade joined the U's on a free transfer from Middlesbrough in November 2003, after a short but impressive loan spell at league rivals Chesterfield. He didn't make the grade at Layer Road, failing to score in the 29 appearances he made over 18 months, leading to him being released at the end of the 2004-05 season.
Following his departure from the U's, he had brief spells on trial at Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Darlington, before joining Crawley Town at the start of the 2005-06 season. By late November he was forced out of the first team after a change in management and went out on loan to Lewes in January 2006. He returned to Crawley in April and made one more first team appearance before the end of the season.
In the summer of 2006 he moved permanently to Lewes, and was part of the team which won the Conference South in 2007-08. After a short loan spell at Tonbridge Angels in February 2008, he then joined the Angels permanently on a two-year contract in the summer.
He left Tonbridge at the end of the 2009-10 season and joined Hastings United. After half a season he quit Hastings, having played 23 games scoring one goal, and immediately joined league rivals Horsham - coincidently his last game for Hastings was a defeat against Horsham who had three players sent off! He was top goalscorer with nine goals in 20 games at Horsham, but chose to leave at the end of the season when the manager left.
He rejoined Lewes at the beginning of this season, but left in November due to a lack of games and now plays for Crawley Down.
Away from football he is a mechanical services engineer, installing heating, air conditioning and plumbing.
Clubs since leaving the U's: Crawley Town, Lewes, Tonbridge Angels, Hastings United, Horsham, Crawley Down.
What to read next:
Ruthless fouling didn’t work, hitting out like a child didn’t work, muscling up to Swans players certainly didn’t work as Vitor Matos got his first win at the third attempt as Swans head coach against a misguided Oxford side this afternoon. The referee, one Anthony Backhouse matched Oxford with the worst performance seen at the Swans home stadium this season.
If you saw the match, please give us your player ratings and a mini match report.
It’s a huge game for both sides, the Swans desperately need a win, the last time was at home in October v Norwich City.
Swansea Independent subscriber and social media follower, Matt Latham is on his first trip to Swansea this morning. A quest for him over the last fourteen years of following Swansea City. We had a chat with Matt who will be at the Oxford United game today.
This evening we look to on the pitch matters leading up to tomorrow afternoons big game against Oxford United (3pm) at the swansea.com. Vitor Matos has already stated that he has a full squad to choose from, and all that comes with our match day morning focus tomorrow plus team news.
Swans head coach, Vitor Matos had an interesting pre match gathering this week and possibly put paid to Malick Yalcouyé’s immediate involvement this weekend. Of course that would depend on how you view the words of the Portuguese who is already seeing more and more about his task ahead.
The month of December comes around with a few extra fixtures and the end of those six fixtures is a catalyst for some teams. The Swans have issues on the pitch and some are stating off it as well.
The vultures were circling overhead. The bleached bones of the dead lay all around. Wait…a movement…a moving hand. A hen peckered face turns to the light and screams out, ‘Jack Butty here. I’m back with my latest missive from the defiles of dreadful duplicity.’ The cheers of voices were raised. Jack Butty looked around, ‘You lot can pipe down. You’re all gonners and gooners.’ And so, it came to pass…
The Swansea City coaching mystery took another weird step yesterday when we received some information on Tozé Mendes, the new assistant manager to Vitor Matos. Well, in certain quarters he is Vitor’s assistant.
It all was going so nicely, well for fifteen minutes of the game yesterday at The Hawthorns. The script unfolded as soon as West Bromwich Albion got ahold of the game. A game which ended just the way most expected.
