FARWELL, GOOD LUCK & THANK YOU OLLIE BRAY
Willand Rovers Ollie Bray gives pro football a shot.
Striker Bray has agreed to join National League side Aldershot Town on an 18 month contract. The exciting forward has been at Willand Rovers for the past season and a half and now gets an opportunity to play at a higher level. Manager David Steele says “I am sad to see Ollie go. His pace and presence has been an asset for us, but the chance to play at an established National League club is too good to turn down. We wish Ollie all the best in his new adventure and thank Aldershot Town for the professional way they have gone about this signing.”
New Year’s Day Match now on Sat 30 Dec 23!
We have, by agreement with Paulton Rovers, changed the date of the scheduled New Year’s Day match to Saturday 30 December 2023, two days earlier.
The reason for the date change is to avoid yet another bank holiday home fixture clash with Tiverton Town and, perhaps more importantly, to give the players and management teams from both clubs an opportunity to enjoy the New Year’s Eve festivities without the burden of knowing they have to be up early the next morning to prepare for an important league match.
Sat 18 Nov: MATCH is ON!!
GAME ON! After an early pitch inspection our match at 3pm against Melksham Town is definitely ON!
With no matches at Tivvy, Exeter City, Argyll or Taunton today and if you want your footy fix then come on down to Silver Street: Tivvy, City, Argyll & Taunton season ticket holders will be admitted at Concession price on presentation of your season ticket. See you all at 3pm.

New Year’s Eve ’23
Tickets become available on 9 November for our New Year’s Eve ’23 “bash”!
We are pleased to present Turnette Doone, an excellent three-piece band from Taunton that plays a wide range of big hit covers from the 60’s to contemporary acoustic, electric, rock, pop, soul, including (but not limited to) Queen, Deep Purple, Kaiser Chiefs, Killers, Snow Patrol, Verve, Pink Floyd, Cockney Rebel, Led Zep, Thin Lizzy, Motorhead, Rolling Stones and U2.
As usual, it will be a “bring your own nibbles night”: there will be no food on sale at the club on the night.
The music and boogying starts at 8pm and the band will run into New Year’s Day.
Tickets are just £10/person for members & £12/person for non-members and can be bought at the club bar, by contacting Cath Dinner on 07775 550436 or by email on willandroversfc@outlook.com, from our ticketing partner TicketSource or by contacting us through the club Facebook page.
We would recommend you get your tickets early as we expect this New Year’s Eve event to sell out well before 31 December!
So come and join us to dance your blues away at another cracking night of “live” entertainment at WRFC!
