Our penultimate game of pre-season sees Willand take on Bridgwater United at Fairfax Park. Our first of two away matches of pre-season saw Willand win against Bishops Lydeard then back-to-back 2-2 draws against Taunton Town and Tiverton Town.
In our last game, several Rovers household names were unavailable from the usual lineup however that would not stop Steele’s men with Tom Bath & Alex Parsons providing the goal threat and with our new signings already adapting well. This match is less of a local one but should still provide a good game as it is only up the M5 for the Rovers.
The one to watch is Jake Llewellyn. He is an experienced defender who has played at Weston and has experience which will be valuable with the young squad that Bridgwater United have. That experience will be invaluable for them as they look to challenge us before their Western League campaign gets underway this weekend.
This match will be a good watch with both sides wanting to win and with Willand in good goalscoring form there will be goals with Willand has scored 2 goals in every pre-season game so far and with some more players coming back we hope to see another win on the road.
Get behind the lads and make sure to show your support as we work hard before the season starts. There is one more pre-season game after this at home to Honiton Town and then we start so get behind the lads and let’s make this a season to remember.
