Martin Jackson
Cheeky striker, brimming with confidence who is now very much part of the First Team set up. A goal poacher who can also use his pace to get away and score his fair share of one-on-one goals. His First Team highlight was a hat trick against Old Ashtonians in a 5-1 win in February 2006. He has graduated through Third and `Second Team football. Played as a goalie when younger. Scored a stunning hat-trick for the Seconds against table toppers Old Trafford in October 2002, then four against Oldham Albion in January 2003, followed by a hat-trick in a friendly against the Roaring Winds. Top goalscorer for the Second Team in season 2002-03. Top scorer for the Thirds in 2003-04 with 26 goals. Also named the Third team's Players' Player of the Year 2003-04. Scored the vital goal that won the Division E championship for the Thirds in 2004-05. First Team leading goalscorer in 2005-06 and also in 2006-07 and First Team Players' Player of the Year in 2006-07. Nickname: Jacko. DoB 28.2.85
Stephen Jackson
Martin's younger brother, also a forward who is quick and can score goals. It surely won't be long before he joins Martin in the First Team squad. Played his junior football for a number of clubs including Hillgate Boys. Joined Mellor in the summer of 2005 for his first season in open age. Played mainly for the Fourths but made a scoring debut for the Second Team in a 2-1 defeat at Bedians in April 2006. Also made his debut for the First Team against Burnage away in May 2006. Fourth Team top scorer in 2005-06. Second Team Player of the Year in 2006-07. Nickname: Jacko or Mini Jacko DoB 30.4.89
Matt Jamieson
Mellor Second team left-back in 2006-07 he also made his First team debut in a friendley against Woodley Reserves in December 2006.
Sean Kiernan
Joined Mellor shortly after the start of the 2007-08 season and made his debut in a 3-1 home win for the Thirds against Old Stocs.
Wesley Jubb
Utility player who appeared mainly for the Second team in 2006-07.
Mike Johnson
Excellent clubman, he wasn't fazed when asked to play full-back for the first team in a crisis, after performing all season in the thirds. Seems to win the football card every week. Scored a fantastic winning goal for the second team in a bruising cup tie away at Droylsden in February 2003 when he ran 40 yards to chip the keeper. Will he ever score a better goal? Will anyone? In 2003-04 he became a rock at the heart of the fourth team's defence until a nasty gash on his shin ended his season. Bought a new pair of boots from JJB Sports in March 2005 only to find when he got home that the box contained two left boots.. A dogged defender as you will see by clicking his picture. Nickname: Johnson DoB 20.8.82
Luke Jubb
Mellor's baby-faced assassin. Joined Mellor at the start of 2001-2002 season from Romiley where he had been banging in goals for the third team. He proved equally deadly for our first team, except strangely from the penalty spot. However, his pace and eye for goal are a constant threat. Bagged 29 goals in season 2001-2002 and 28 in 2002-2003. Joint leading first team scorer in 2003-04 with 17 goals. Has the perfect excuse for being in the Romiley Arms on Friday night. He works there! Nickname: Jubby. DoB 4.3.84
