Willand Rovers is delighted to announce the arrival of talented front man Charlie Bateson.
This exciting striker has already set an impressive goal scoring record for such a young man, having netted 15 times this season for Street FC to add to the many goals he scored previously whilst with Shepton Mallet FC. With such a record Charlie has attracted interest from other Southern League clubs so we are delighted that Charlie has chosen to join Willand Rovers to further his footballing career.
Our Media team caught up new signing, Bateson, and this what he had to say about linking up with his former Manager: “Having worked with Watto previously, I know his ambition and work ethic aligns with mine. I can’t wait to give my all for the football club and help support the team.”
/ “I am ready to showcase my ability at the next level.” – Charlie Bateson /
We also managed to catch up with Rovers Gaffer, Ben Watson, and he shared his thoughts on his latest addition: “I am delighted Charlie has decided to join Willand Rovers FC. His talent, personality and work ethic are all the ingredients to help push the club forward. I shared our club values and ethos, and our ambitions are very much aligned; he can’t wait to get going on Wednesday.”
/ “Charlie is someone who wears his heart on his sleeve and will give his all every time he plays.” – Ben Watson /
Bateson comes straight into the squad for our Wednesday evening league match at Silver Street against Malvern Town.
