Bishop Sutton v Brislington

“THE LAKE VIEW” Official matchday programme of Bishop Sutton F.C.

Toolstation Western League Division One Brislington Saturday 9th December 2023

3.00pm

Good afternoon everyone, Welcome back to Lakeview for this afternoon’s Toolstation Western League Division One fixture with Brislington FC. We offer a warm welcome as usual to their supporters & officials along with the three match officials too, hoping they all have a safe journey home.

The main news story of the past week or so is that we have a new manager.

Andrei Catalin stepped down from his post before the Bradford Town game last weekend and the club would like to thank Andrei for all his efforts in what has been a difficult season to say the least.

Moving on, everyone at Lakeview would like to welcome the new boss Chris Blammon. A familiar face to the club and many others in the League, it is hoped that Chris can work some magic and help the club begin to climb the Division One table. Good luck, Chris!

Finally, thank you as always for your support and enjoy the game.

Bishop Sutton Club History

The club was re-formed in 1977 with just an U15 team playing in the Weston-superMare Sunday League and then progressing in successive seasons to the Bristol and Avon League U16s and the second and first divisions before being admitted into the Somerset Senior League for the 1981-82 season.

The next ten years were spent climbing through the four divisions before being voted into the Western League for season 1991-92. The First Division was won in 1997-98 and then followed seventeen successive seasons in the Premier Division, the highlight being winning the Premier title in 2012-13.

Unfortunately our ground grading did not permit progression to the Southern League and all the team management and players then left the club. Relegation from the Premier followed at the end of season 2014-15 and we have experienced mixed fortunes in the First Division since then.

For the season 2020-21 Jon Toy came in as manager but unfortunately we were only able to play 10 games before the season was curtailed due to the COVID 19 pandemic. Having retained a lot of last season’s squad and added a couple of new players, we finished in mid table in season 2021/22 followed by seventh place last season.

Jon left in the summer and was replaced by Catalin Andrei and Steve Taylor.

A big thank you....

... to all our sponsors....

B R I S L I N G T O N

Focus on....

BRISLINGTON AFC Charlie Phillips – Goalkeeper New signing this year previously at Bradford Town & Radstock. Decent keeper who has been around this level for a while now Ben Tucker – Defender 2nd Season at the club. Attacking full back likes to get forward and gives a different option. Never let us down when he played last season Lewis Ewins – Defender 3rd season at the club & was at Bath City U18s. Ball playing full back who has an excellent range of passing Ben Withey – Defender Was at Frome Town last season and Perksy was quick to get his signature will fill the gap left by Danny Barwood’s retirement Lewis Dunn – Defender Also came through the juniors but has had spell at other clubs since. However, always comes back home.

Wide midfielder who has converted to centre half. Very confident on the ball.

Asa White – Defender Last years top goalscorer with 25 goals. Not bad for a defender. Probably one of the best headers of the ball in the league and dangerous from set pieces. Will be the club Captain this year.

Harry Tobin – Defender/ Midfield 4rd Season at the club after signing from Guernsey FC. Good footballer at either left back or in midfield. Will chip in with goals as well.

Jack Allward – Defender 2nd season at the club. Has previously been at Paulton, Larkhall & Bitton. Solid defender who suffered his share of injuries last season Ashley Kington – Midfield Hoping to see Ash back this season after a ACL injury ruled him out after 12 games last season. Has played at a good level with Weston. Loves to have the ball & known to score the odd spectacular goal.

Joe McClennan - Midfield Pacy tricky winger who loves to go at players. Another player who has played at a higher level. Was previously at Bitton.

Focus on....

BRISLINGTON AFC Joel Smith – Midfield Signed form Bristol Telephones only 18 years old and showing what he gives to the team. Does everything simple a good asset to the squad. Last years Young player of the year Jordan Ricketts – Midfield Signed from Hallen. Fits in well in to the midfield but can also act as cover at the back and in the No 10 role, chipped in with a few goals and rightly won players player & managers player of the season Josh Egan – Midfield / Forward New signing this season, been at Bitton & Corsham. Loves the ball at his feet, chips in with important goals.

Jordan Scadding – Midfield / Forward 3rd Season at The club proving last season what a vital player he is. Chips in with important goals.

Kain Edmondson – Forward Hope to see Kain back this season following a cruciate knee injury. Was proving to be a valuable player until his season was cut short following an ACL injury Oaklan Buck – Forward Back for a 2nd spell at the club after a successful season at Bishop Sutton. Knows where the net is. Sometimes his frustration gets the better of him Scored 20 goals last season George Jones – Midfield / Forward Hard working player who has boundless energy. Works hard for the team and chips in with a decent amount of goals. Scored a double hat trick against Portishead last season and scored 22 goals Danny Dodimead – Forward Signed from Hengrove. Has a short spell at the club before. Was top scorer for Hengrove Previously. Loves to go at defenders and tricky with the ball at his feet. Chipped in with 15 goals would have been more if not for a stupid ban he received.

Dean Griffiths – Forward Signed from Bitton who is a proven goalscorer at this level. Strong old fashioned centre forward and something we have lacked in previous seasons. Scored 22 goals last season James Dunn – Forward 3rd Season at the club very much a blood & guts centre forward. Very good in the air and was part of the successful Hengrove side that won promotion to the Premier division.

A big thank you to the sponsors of our reserve & under 18 teams...

With the under-18’s...
