Today’s Game Good afternoon and welcome to the Gerard Buxton Sports Ground for this 2nd Qualifying Round FA Vase Royal Wootton Bassett Town F. C. tie against Bashley. A warm welcome to the players, management and supporters from Bashley who have made the journey up from the New Forest and South Coast for today’s game. would like to thank our Bashley were once one of the big names in the Southern League and played Swansea City in the Second Round of the FA Cup back in Season 1994-95. Whilst they are now playing at Step 5 they look like a club sponsors for this season: back on an upward trajectory and at the time of writing these notes they sit in second place in the Sydenhams Wessex Premier Division. This is the first ever meeting between the two sides. If today’s game results in a draw the replay will be next Tuesday at Bashley with a 7.45M kick-off. Senior Section Flackwell Heath and Virginia Water Senior Teams Shirt Sponsors - Vacant Last Saturday saw us secure another excellent win against a very good Flackwell Heath side, the win First Team Man of the Match Awards - New Calley Arms came at a bit of a cost though as both goal scorers TJ Bohane and Rob Lincoln picked up knocks. TJ First Team Away Travel - Wootton Bassett Service Station was back on Tuesday and hopefully Rob’s is not too serious, and he will be back soon. If you weren’t there and didn’t see Rob’s goal I suggest you view the Your Sport Swindon video as it was a great piece of skill to leave one defender for dead with his control and then some intricate footwork to beat the second Ladies Team – Aftech and TWB Scrap Metal and Ridgeway defender and fire the ball into the corner of the net. As well as scoring twice, the back line also performed well and especially stand-in keeper, veteran Kevin Sawyer who helped us out of a crisis. Two superb Leisure Centre in Partnership with Nuffield Health saves, especially that one in the second half which I am still trying to work out how he was able to get the elevation to put it over the bar. Sam is clearly demonstrating that he has a great contacts network to bring in these players to deal with issues that arise with player availability. Development Team after match hospitality provided by

On Tuesday we made the long trip along the M4 to Windsor for our second visit of the season to Stag www.snackandsandwich.co.uk Meadow, where Virginia Water play their games as part of the groundshare with Windsor FC. We went down 2-0 but had enough chances early on to be out of sight in the first 20 minutes but unfortunately could not convert and paid the price second half conceding one lucky one and one where we pressed Youth Section the self-destruct with a silly throw in. To be fair though, over the whole 90 minutes Virginia Water edged it, as they hassled us all game with a tremendous work rate that did not reduce in intensity from start to Under 18 Blue – EPOC Properties finish. They were also a really nice club and a great addition to the Premiership. That said I am still trying Under 16 Blue - EPOC Properties & Clements Building Contractors to get over how much they have to pay Windsor for the use of the ground! Under 15 Yellow - C.S. Building Services August Player of the Month - Brad Pagliaroli Under 14 Blue - Railston Congratulations to Brad Pagliaroli, who was named Royal Wootton Bassett Town's first team August Under 14 Yellow - Memstar Distribution Player of the Month. The forward, a summer signing from Letcombe, contributed six goals in eight appearances to finish the month at the head of the team's scoring charts. He was also responsible for Under 12 Blue - Bevirs Solicitors setting up a couple of goals for teammates as well. Among his goals were an opening day brace in a 6- Under 11’s - Homelands Fencing and Landscaping 1 opening day thrashing of Tuffley Rovers, the winner in a man of the match display away against Leighton Town in the Emirates FA Cup, two well-taken goals in a 4-3 loss at Windsor and a fine strike in a 3-3 draw at Fairford Town. Pagliaroli's attitude on and off the pitch has been impressive too as he has Programme Printing & Sponsor hit the ground running with his new team. Cats Solutions Development Side The Development side went down to a 6-2 defeat last Saturday in a game probably best described as men (old ones at that) against boys. In league leaders Shrewton’s ranks are a couple of players in Jesse Advertising board sponsors Walters and Craig Lewis who were playing in their Western League days back in the early 2000’s, when one or other was usually the top goal scorer for Shrewton. Our Development Team manager Paul Gerrish Aftech, T.W. Scrap Metal, C.S Building Services, Arctic Services, reported that Walters, in particular, was excellent from start to finish despite being in his mid-40’s now Advanced Sports Coaching Ltd, KG Sports Massage and was one of the fittest players on the pitch. Trailing 2-1 at half time the killer goal came just after the Topping & Van Gerwen, Crump Butchers, Atwell Martin, break and after that there was only going to be one winner as Shrewton scored three more. We did Park Flooring, Don Rogers Sports, Sally Pussey’s, SJ Curtis, manage a second consolation goal to make the final score 6-2, our goals coming from Josh Bolton and Awdry Bailey Douglas, Barnes Coaches, Haine & Smith Tyrhys Mifsud.

run of five straight wins right at the end of the season led to a final position of 14th, well clear of the relegation Rob Lincoln – Forward zone. The summer of 2009 saw the departure of club record top scorer Richard Gillespie to Blue Square South side Eastleigh, having scored 173 goals in 308 appearances. Steve Riley appointed long serving defender Chris Ferrett as player-coach to replace assistant manager Martin Doolan, who had immigrated to New Zealand, whilst the signing of striker Mark Gamble from Farnborough ensured that Bash could enter the 2009-10 season with renewed hope of being competitive in a strong League. Bashley exceeded expectations in the 2009/10 season, briefly topping the table after a 5-0 win at Tiverton in October. They spent the vast majority of the season in a play-off place, only to surrender their grip on a top five finish on the final day of the season with defeat at Nuneaton. An impressive FA Trophy run saw Bash through to an encounter with Conference National side, Crawley Town, who edged the tie at Bashley Road by the odd goal in five. The campaign provided some tremendous entertainment and although they lost a number of key players at the start of 2010-11, Bash rallied to secure a top half finish by the end of the season, meaning that they could look forward with quiet confidence to the start of the 2011-12 season. After a good start, however, Bash struggled during the middle of the season and suffered losses to lower ranked opposition in all four cup competitions. A solid run towards the end of the season ensured Premier Division survival, although Steve Riley and Chris Ferrett left the club during the summer to take up similar roles with AFC Totton. Bash appointed the former Basingstoke Town management team of Frank Gray and Gerry Murphy for the 2012-13 season but the side struggled in the lower reaches of the division finishing in 17th place and again going out of all Cup competitions at the first round stage. 2013-14 Major changes within the club structure and a degree of uncertainty led to Club stalwarts Paul Gazzard and goalkeeping legend Stewart Kearn being given the daunting task of re-building the team which necessitated a series of budget cuts. Alas results mainly went against Bashley, several players moved on to pastures new after a mid-season restructuring which also saw Stewart Kearn step down from his management position. Shortly afterwards the experienced John Pyatt from Brockenhurst FC filled the vacant position to undertake the hard task with Paul Gazzard trying to steer the New Forest side away from the relegation zone, with just a handful of wins the club was relegated to the South and West Division. The exit of players together with a lack of club executives and sponsors put the club in a perilous position. Bashley, despite the actions of loyal fans and supporters who contributed to a ‘Save Bashley’ appeal which allowed the club to see out the season were very close to being wound up. At the last moment a major re-organisation with Hard-working, with pace and a willingness to take defenders on, Lincoln is an exciting the broom firmly brushing many players, staff and helpers into the past which saw Bashley start season 2014-15 on a zero budget with a team of new young players and the return of Andy Darnton as joint manager alongside wide player who joins Bassett this summer after splitting time last season between Graham Speechley-Price. Shrivenham and Purton. Darnton resigned his position as manager in mid-October 2014 with Graham Speechley-Price also stepping down to allow Martin Spiers take the reins, Graham concentrated his efforts in a commercial role within the club. Spiers The energetic midfielder began his career in senior football with New College, featuring role only lasted a few weeks with Dominic Cuncliffe taking over the hot seat following Spiers resignation towards for them in their final Wiltshire League campaign in 2011-12 as well as their inaugural the end of November 2014. Cuncliffe assistant was Paul Morris who doubled up with Tom Prodomo with season in Hellenic League Division One West a season later. assistance behind the scenes from Graham after Cuncliffe resigned his position out of the blue in December. At the start of February 2015 Graham was asked by the Executive to take over as caretaker manager until the Lincoln made his debut with Shrivenham in 2015-16, scoring once in eight end of the season which resulted in Prodomo leaving the club. With the zero budget still in place Speechley-Price appearances, seven of which came from the bench, for them in Division One West. He battled through to the end of the season with Bashley generally playing well but losing due to small mistakes then established himself as one of their leading appearance makers a season later, which everyone will have now learned from. A mighty effort was needed to finish away from the relegation zone, although some good bright performances late on in the season but they were not regular enough, a bottom of the scoring four times in 22 games. pile and relegation was the result.

In the end, however, two second half goals from the hosts – the first from a well- Early successes included winning the Calne & District League in the 1930-31 Season, having finished worked short corner routine, the second a gift from a critical error – proved the difference, forcing Sam Collier runners-up the previous season, and then again in 1934-35. Following a move up to the Wiltshire League and his team to return to Wiltshire empty-handed. How the outcome could have been different though. Division 2 promotion was earned again the following season and the team then remained in the top division in the county until the outbreak of war. Thirty seconds in a good move in the left corner involving Brad Pagliaroli and debutant Gabriel Silva opened up space, with Gio Wrona eventually squaring for TJ Bohane, whose stabbed effort from the edge of the box forced After the war Wootton Bassett Town F.C. recommenced in the County League with limited success until an outstretched Matt Jones to tip around the post. Wanting to playing the ball out from the back at every opportunity, the hosts were stuttering in the early stages. And their commitment to that style of play almost proved 1958-59 when they won their first Wiltshire League title. In 1987-88 the Wiltshire League Division 1 title was costly in the second minute when Silva picked the pocket of dithering centre half Mike Chambers. Jones came won, elevating the club into the Hellenic League, where they have remained ever since. The club finally won to the rescue though, blocking the forward's tight angled effort. The danger wasn't averted though, and Silva the Wiltshire Senior Cup in 1998-99 and repeated this achievement in 2000-01. The club have had three headed narrowly wide from the resulting corner. A rare foray out from the back then presented the Waters with spells in the Hellenic Premier and gained promotion back in 2012-13. their first opening as Scott Jackson let loose from range, his low bouncing drive forcing an awkward parry around the post by Charlie McGready. Since the onset of the new millennium the club has expanded significantly, with the establishment of a thriving Youth Section, Ladies Section, Veterans team and Sunday side. The club now operates 27 teams from under Bassett were the side firmly on top at this stage though. And on nine minutes Josh Shama acrobatically shot 7s upwards. All play their games at the relocated Gerard Buxton Sports Ground, which opened in the summer wide after Adam Corcoran had headed down a Bohane cross. A minute later, clever skill from Pagliaroli allowed of 2015. This growth led to the club being awarded Charter Standard Development Club status by the him to cut inside two defenders and break into the box, but Jones was on hand to repel his effort. Shama then Football Association in 2008 before this was upgraded to Community Club status a year later. Wootton recycled the loose ball into the box, with Bohane heading inches over from twelve yards. It was ultimately a period Bassett Town FC was the first club in Wiltshire to achieve this. International ties have also been established of play Bassett were left to rue. Virginia Water settled down into a tidy rhythm, playing neat football, while also with Dutch amateur side FC ‘s-Gravenzande. giving their visitors little time when in possession. It didn't help Bassett that by impatiently trying to rush the ball forward they were prone to carelessly ceding possession back to their hosts. Still, Virginia Water were only really Season 2018-19 sees Sam Collier in charge of the First Team. troubling Bassett from set plays. Finn Evered headed straight into the hands of McGready from a Steve Williams corner, before a short corner out to Josh Hill on the edge of the area resulted in a powerful drive being spilt by McGready and headed away off the line by Corcoran. Another training ground routine then resulted in the same defender getting in the way of Jake Baker's hooked attempt. At the other end, Bassett continued to fail to find their range. A slip from Silva meant that he was unable to properly latch onto Iggy Ilott's defence splitting through ball and instead shot straight at Jones before Bohane shot low into the path of the 'keeper after a blocked Shama shot fell to the forward. Early in the second period Shama tried his luck from distance, but narrowly missed the target. And that would prove to be the last decent attempt at goal Bassett had in the game as their disjointed pattern of play continued to let them down. It meant too much was being asked of their defence, and the danger signs appeared when Scott Jackson saw a deflected strike loop just over, the subsequent corner being headed over by an unmarked Chambers. With close to seventy minutes on the clock, Virginia Water eventually took the lead. Making a darting run from the edge of the area towards the near post, an unmarked Hill was able to connect with Williams' low delivery from the corner. The midfielder appeared to mishit his first time shot, but that wound up being in his favour as the ball looped into the top left corner. They then almost had an instant second as Adam McNamara's shot flew past the post before McGready's fine one-on-one save with his legs denied Baker. But the visitors ultimately gift-wrapped the decisive second. Taking a throw in halfway between his own goal and the middle of the park, left back Jack Stanley decided to try and find his 'keeper rather than taking the sensible option and going down the line.

It was a good ten yards short of his intended target though, and McGready was lucky that Baker, who raced onto the loose ball, remained on his feet when the two made contact outside the box. That allowed the forward to square inside for his strike partner, and though the Bassett 'keeper did his best to chase play down, McNamara kept his cool and tucked the ball away. There was to be no coming back from that self-inflicted hole. And they were fortunate not to concede again when Hill, racing in front of Stanley, steered over from Joe McBride's low cross into the box.

Man of the Match: Adam Corcoran – was solid in the centre of defence alongside Steve Yeardley, winning the majority of his aerial battles and helping snuff out some dangerous looking counter attacks when Bassett were caught with too many men committed forward.

RWBTFC F.A. Vase Record In a good weekend for the Collier family, Sam’s Dads Chippenham Town side won impressively away at former footballl league side Torquay United last Saturday to climb into 8th place in the 2001-02 QR2 Calne Town H W 3 - 2 table. A Matt Smith header proved to be the difference between the two teams as Chippenham R1 St Blazey H L 0 - 2 completed back to back wins for the first time this season. Chippenham’s Jack Compton also 2002-03 QR2 Shortwood United A L 1 - 5 made the Non-League Paper’s National League North & South Team of the Day. Hopefully 2003-04 QR2 Bemerton Heath Harl's A L 1 - 4 Chippenham will be bale to maintain this form and make a challenge for the play-off sthis 2004-05 QR1 Wellington A L 0 - 4 season. 2005-06 QR1 Christchurch H D 1 - 1 With the FA Cup there were no league games in the Southern League last weekend. In the FA QR1 Christchurch A L 0 - 1 Cup there were mixed fortunes for Wiltshire based sides. Melksham Town lost 4-1 at home against Merthyr Town. Their chances of victory realistically disappeared after Warren Maident’s 2006-07 QR1 Shrewton United A D 1 - 1 sending off which saw the game swing in Merthyr’s favour. Merthyr had taken the lead on 76 QR1 Shrewton United H L 2 - 3 minutes through Kerry Morgan just before Maidment picked up his second yellow card of the 2007-08 QR2 Bournemouth A L 0 - 12 match. Merthyr immediately went 2-0 up and rthen scored a third. Whilst Jon Davies smashed 2008-09 QR1 Buckingham Athletic A W 5 - 3 a 25 yard free kick to get one back for Melksham the game was put beyond doubt when Corey QR2 Henley Town A W 6 - 0 Jenkins scored his second of the game for Merthyr. Meanwhile Swindon Supermarine were the biggest winners of the round smashing Woodbridge Town 7-1. Supermarine were 2-1 at the at R1 Kidlington H W 3 - 2 the interval of this first qualifying round tie, thanks to goals from Stuart Fleetwood and Josh R2 Wimbourne Town A L 0 - 4 Parsons. However, after a stern word from manager Lee Spalding at the break, Supermarine 2009-10 QR1 Hamble ASSC H L 2 - 3 burst into life and thumped their visitors with five further goals to progress to the next round. 2010-11 QR2 Devizes Town A W 4 - 0 Parsons completed his hat-trick, while Ryan Campbell, Zak Westlake and Luke Williams were R1 Cadbury Heath A L 1 - 2 all on target to seal the rout. The third Wiltshire side Salisbury drew 1-1 at home against Yate with the replay taking place on Tuesday night. Bemerton Heath Harlequins were also involved 2011-12 QR1 Shortwood United A L 0 - 4 in 7-1 game but unfortunately for them they were on the wrong end of the result at Taunton. The 2012-13 QR1 GE Hamble A L 0 - 6 final Wiltshire side in action were Westbury United whose fantastic winning start to season came 2013-14 QR2 Odd Down A L 0 - 7 to an end when they lost 3-0 at Bitton, another side like Westbury who have started with four 2014-15 QR1 Cove A W 3 - 2 wins in the Western League Premier Division. QR2 Abingdon United H L 2 - 3 At Step 5, whilst we were picking up the excellent win over Flackwell Heath, Bradford Town 2015-16 QR1 Binfield H D 1 - 1 were picking up three useful points courtesy of a 1-0 home win over Brislington. This extended QR1 Binfield A W 4 - 3 their winning run to three games, Jack Witcombe scoring the only goal of the game. The win lifted them into 3rd place in the table, moving above Westbury in the process but Westbury now QR2 Windsor FC A L 1 - 2 have two games in hand. 2016-17 QR2 Thame Utd H L 2 - 4 At Step 6 in the Uhlsport Hellenic League the poor start to the season for both New College 2017-18 QR1 Fairford Town H W 3 - 1 Swindon and Pewsey Vale. In the case of New College, they became the first side in two QR2 Codicote H W 5 - 0 seasons to drop points against Tytherington Rocks as the Rocks finally ended their dismal run R1 Ampthill Town H W 2- 1 with a 4-1 win. The defat meant New College slipped to the bottom of the table. Pewsey Vale R2 Horndean A L 2- 3 also slipped to another defat going down 5-0 at home to leaders Easington Sports.
