Unfortunately, the hope CLUB BADGE COMPLETE WITH given by Bob’s visit has been dashed as the email from the League CEO Brian King noted that “myself, ATENAS II HOODY the UHL Executive and Officers are happy with the progress made this season and cannot see any reason CODE NUMBER: 100887.700 WINNER T-SHIRT CODE NUMBER: 101107.703 why we should consider any radical changes for season 2020-2021 without being presented with SIZES: irrefutable evidence of the need so to do so”.

Club Merchandise RWBTFCPersonalised Bassett News MerchandisePricing Wantage and Abingdon With just two games scheduled in January it has been a quiet month. The last home encounter against Wantage Town saw us lose narrowly to the title favourites in controversial fashion with Matty Bennett being sent-off on the stroke of half-time. Despite the video evidence provided by Your Support Swindon the FA UPLOAD ANY PICTURE AND/OR MESSAGE ON unfortunately did not overturn the sending off decision and hence Matty was suspended as a result of the OUR WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS decision. A clear slip on the wet surface and a harsh decision in the first place upheld. Not sure the appeal Help support our great club and grab yourself the perfect Christmas gift. hearing would have been that way if this had been a Premiership game. A late winner from former player Keyrings Mugs Metal Prints Steve Robertson, who once again came back to haunt us at the Gerard Buxton Ground gave Wantage the 2-1 win. Then last Saturday we visited lowly Abingdon United and, just like had happened at Ardley in our previous away game, we let in two late goals to go down to a 2-0 defeat. The conceding of late goals, particularly away from home, has been a real bad habit this season and hopefully something Sam can eradicate between now and the end of the season and certainly ahead of next season.

Slate Money Bank Development Side The Development side have played just one game since the last programme, losing narrowly to Corsham Town Reserves. With a team strengthened by the inclusion of Steve Yeardley, Tony Joyce and Mani Roper, we lost 3-2 to a side who have yet to suffer defeat at home this season. We went close to getting Water Bottle the equaliser, but it was not to be in an entertaining game in which former Bassett player Dan Lardner starred for Corsham. Unfortunately, last week’s home game against Malmesbury Vics Dev was postponed due to the loss of electricity to the site and in all likelihood will now be re-arranged for midweek.

V A BLOODY R

By Matt Badcock For years the debate around technology raged. Should football have it? Should it not? Will it help? Will it take away the spontaneity and disrupt the flow of the game? The answers still aren't all that clear. In last year's Russian World Cup there were some decisions where its use made absolute sense. There were other times that left everyone scratching their heads. Essentially it is used in four scenarios. Goals and whether there was a violation in the build-up like an offside or foul. The next is for penalty decisions – general fouls aren’t reviewable unless it is a direct red card. And the final option is for cases of mistaken identity when yellow or red cards are issued. ROYAL WOOTTON BASSETT TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB SEASON 2018-19 VETERANS TEAM FIXTURES - WILTSHIRE VETERANS LEAGUE - AUTUMN/WINTER The system is something everyone is clearly getting used to – referees, players and fans.

He had Royal Wootton Bassett Town returned to winning ways in the Hellenic League Premier earlier booked TJ Bohane for a firm challenge, despite letting Kaylem Patterson off scot-free for a foul of similar Division in remarkable fashion, recording a 7-3 victory over seventh place Binfield, with strength minute before. Carl Evans was also cautioned for a soft, inadvertent foul. six of those goals being racked up before half time. Gerard Buxton Ground, 29th November 2017 Yet for all that frustration with the officials, Bassett manager Sam Collier would no doubt have been pleased about his side's solid first half display that had seen them take the lead. There'll be few games like this one at the Gerard Buxton Sports Ground in years to come, that's for sure. A stunning, remarkable, mindboggling evening saw Royal Wootton There had been a pair of let-offs as Patterson twice wasted opportunities when presented with just Gary Aulsberry Bassett Town score six first half goals - including three in the opening ten minutes of the to beat. But on both occasions, the first coming when Ben Cook was allowed to run at the Bassett defence and the game - en route to an amazing 7-3 victory over Binfield, who had come into the game on a seven game unbeaten streak. second after the forward had shown quick feet on the edge of the area to beat Mark James, Patterson shot straight at the 'keeper. Both sides had decent defensive records prior to kick off, while Rich Hunter's team had, if anything, been struggling for goals in the league despite their respectable mid-table Aside from that though, Wantage appeared rather toothless in attack. position. With Binfield entering the game in seventh place, just five points above Bassett, a close game was what both managers would undoubtedly have been expecting. Chances were also at a premium at the other end. However, when one arrived on 28 minutes, Pagliaroli made no Instead what they got was a goalfest which defied belief. Lewis Waldon, who has proven mistake. Josh Shama's perfectly timed tackle at the halfway line allowed Bassett to break, and the ball was worked to be an outstanding discovery, got the party started in the game's opening minute. quickly into the feet of Nick Stanley on the edge of the area. He then slipped a clever reverse pass to an overlapping Racing onto Gio Wrona's hook over the top, which defender Jack Thompson-Wheeler Pagliaroli, and the forward bent an arcing shot into the top left corner that left Meare no chance. failed to head clear, the forward fired in a superb half volley from twenty yards out that Henry Craven could do little about. The way the game had unfolded, Bassett would have been confident of defending that lead after half time. But Within minutes the Binfield 'keeper had plucked the ball from the back of his net a further Bennett's harsh dismissal made that task all the harder. two times. Rory Sproule got both of them. He first beat Craven at his near post from a tight angle after latching onto Steve Yeardley's long ball forward and cutting inside. Forced into playing with just one-man up front, Bassett came under heavy pressure from the restart. Second later, Waldon beat the offside trap before squaring to his strike partner, who had a simple tap in to extend the lead further. Wantage initially failed to make that pressure pay though as Aulsberry remained largely untroubled. The best the visitors could muster in the second half's early exchanges was when Steve Robertson steered a shot from an acute After such a frenetic start there was finally a brief period of respite. But it didn't last long. angle into the side netting. Midway through the half, Jonny Aitkenhead's ball over the top caused a horrendous mix up between Craven and Gary Smith, which Waldon seized to make it 4-0 before Harvey Bassett's resistance was eventually broken on 66 minutes though. Left back Mark Flanagan steered in a cross from Scholes got in on the act, producing a neat finish on the turn from Bradley Clark's square the left, which Aulsberry attempted to punch clear. Cook was on hand to pick up the pieces though, and steered the pass to make it five seconds later. rebound in from fifteen yards with a composed finish. While it had been one-way traffic, it was as though every Bassett shot was finding the back of the net. And though Brad Pagliaroli did pull one back for the visitors, scoring with Six minutes later the visitors were awarded a penalty, again in controversial fashion as Tony Joyce was harshly a powerful left-footed drive, Waldon made sure his side went into the break with a five penalised for a handball when Patterson sought to tee himself up for a shot. Fortunately for the hosts, substitute goal advantage as he completed a hugely deserved hat-trick, heading in at the near post Ryan Markham dragged his rushed spot kick wide of the left post. from a Wrona corner on the stroke of half time. The opening period must have left both managers as shellshocked as one another. Every Bassett then fashioned a chance for themselves.

Have a look and see what you think. Hopefully the excellent Football in Bracknell team will be here today covering the game and give their thoughts on the matter as we know they were unhappy at the start of the season with the fixture scheduling. 18 43

Whenever we visit other clubs it North Leigh Reserves 4400166123.00 Worcester College OB 4400112123.00 seems to always be the main topic of conversation with other club committees at half time or The Herd 4400113123.00 Middle Barton 2 2 0 0 5 2 6 3.00 before the matches. The programme for Windsor’s home game on Tuesday night against our Watlin gton Town 4310114102.50 visitors today Binfield described it as “terribly lop-sided”, with them having 11 of their final 14 Newbury 4 3 1 0 9 4 10 2.50 Wokingham & Emmbr'k 4 3 1 0 6 3 10 2.50 games at home. We have written to the League on at least 3 occasions this season and also Abin gdon Town 4301124 92.25 made representations to League Chairman Bob Dalling when he visited us at the beginning of Launton Sports 4301113 92.25 Banbury United Reserves 4301147 92.25 November for the Abingdon United game to discuss our concerns. New College Swindon 4301138 92.25 Yarnton 14 10 1 3 32 15 31 2.21 The specific points we have raised with the League over the season have included: Bicester Town 10 7 0 3 16 9 21 2.10 Letcombe 26 16 5 5 45 30 53 2.04 Clanfield 38 23 8 7 81 38 77 2.03  The high number of home games scheduled in a short space of time. With reference to Ross Town 12 7 3 2 26 9 24 2.00 Winterbourne United 12 7 2 3 25 23 23 1.92 playing 5 consecutive games at home in a short space of time, we noted that this places Cirencester United 30 16 9 5 70 35 57 1.90 Easington Sports 36 20 8 8 79 42 68 1.89 undue pressure on unpaid volunteers who have to ensure the fixtures take place and all Almondsbury Town 10 5 3 2 12 9 18 1.80 Tytherington Rocks 14 8 1 5 21 18 25 1.79 required matters are dealt with (e.g. production of programmes, hospitality etc); Shrivenham 8422118141.75  There are also cash flow implications from long sequences of home or away games. Headington Amateurs 24 12 6 6 53 35 42 1.75 Hol Whilst having those 5 games of gate receipts at a time when crowds are normally at their yport 4211104 71.75 best, is obviously good news, there will also be five lots of officials to pay in a short space Windsor 4 2 1 1 7 6 7 1.75 Harrow Hill 10 5 2 3 11 10 17 1.70 of time. By playing so many home games at the start of the season, by definition we would Gloucester United 6 3 1 2 9 8 10 1.67 Brackley Town Saints 8341139131.63 then have long spells without a home game in the winter months when cash flows are at Cheltenham Saracens 42 20 8 14 62 63 68 1.62 Brimscombe & Thrupp 15 7 3 5 19 18 24 1.60 their most stretched (and this proved to be correct as the RWBSA particularly suffered Woodley United 2 1 0 1 4 4 3 1.50 with less bar activity over the normally lucrative Christmas period). With hindsight the Burnham 4 2 0 2 9 6 6 1.50 Hook Norton 12 5 3 4 16 14 18 1.50 heavy scheduling at the start of the season has also meant we have had two free Swindon Supermarine 6 3 0 3 6 5 9 1.50 Rayners Lane 4 2 0 2 5 5 6 1.50 Saturdays in both January and February when no fixtures have been scheduled for us, Cirencester Town Dev 2 1 0 1 2 1 3 1.50 Forest Green Rov Res 2 1 0 1 5 5 3 1.50 which makes all those midweek games at the start of the season all the more galling. Virginia Water 2 1 0 1 2 3 3 1.50  Purton 38 15 10 13 54 48 55 1.45 The fact that in our first eight league fixtures we played the same three teams twice. We Oxford Cit were not the only team impacted by this poor planning. Playing a side twice in a short y Nomads 16 7 2 7 30 33 23 1.44 space of time is not clever in our view. The reasons why we do not consider this to be Malmesbury Victoria 12 4 5 3 18 14 17 1.42 Ascot United 12 5 2 5 16 18 17 1.42 intelligent fixture scheduling are: Henley Town 10 4 2 4 13 9 14 1.40 o Lambourn Sports 16 6 4 6 25 24 22 1.38 Were an unsavoury incident to take place in the first fixture between two sides Cricklade Town 14 5 3 6 21 20 18 1.29 (thankfully to date there have been no such incidents), playing the two games so Carterton Town 24 8 6 10 35 37 30 1.25 Trowbridge Town 12 4 3 5 33 22 15 1.25 close to each other runs the risk of that incident spilling over into the next game. Viking Sports 4 1 2 1 5 3 5 1.25 Chipping Norton Town 14 4 5 5 20 22 17 1.21 Time is a great healer for allowing matters to calm down; Bishops Cleeve 26 8 7 11 43 56 31 1.19 o Teams by definition change their personnel quite heavily over a season and Pe gasus Juniors 22 7 5 10 32 42 26 1.18 playing the same side twice in such a short space of time has the potential to Tuffley Rovers 22 6 8 8 37 40 26 1.18 Reading City/Highmoor Ib 12 4 2 6 20 29 14 1.17 distort the competition. Based on previous seasons other clubs would certainly Longlevens # 6312128 71.17 Readin have been better off playing us in the second half of the season! g Town 6213131371.17 Lydney Town 18 6 3 9 29 29 21 1.17  Our pitch is probably one of the best maintained in the League and they gave us a financial Thatcham Town 8305 81891.13 Abingdon United 20 5 7 8 26 39 22 1.10 reward for being the only club in the League last season not to call a game off. It seems Shortwood United 12 4 1 7 17 24 13 1.08 irrational to then give us so many home games in August and September when all pitches Old Woodstock Town 14 4 3 7 23 23 15 1.07 Kidlington 32 9 7 16 45 64 34 1.06 are usually in good condition and not subject to the impact of the wet and cold weather. Highworth Town 34 11 2 21 42 70 35 1.03 Milton United 20 5 5 10 26 48 20 1.00  The leagues planning was impacting on other leagues, specifically for us the Wiltshire Didcot Town 14 4 2 8 17 30 14 1.00 Cirencester Town 6 1 3 2 7 8 6 1.00 Country League, with home fixtures being scheduled at short notice, usurping games Cheltenham Town Res 4 1 1 2 6 8 4 1.00 scheduled in those other leagues with just five days’ notice.

The key match between Football ID and Rovers Kintbury Rangers, which was set to be the featured game in today’s round-up, was postponed due to the pitch and the match between Wroughton and Devizes Town Res was postponed with Devizes losing their manager in the week and a number of 2 - 11 - 1 1 - 0 1 - 0 1 - 32 - 1 1 - 1 3 - 3 1 - 3- 0 1 1 - 30 - 0 1 - 20 - 2 1 - 2 06-Apr players also departing. In the games that did go ahead, two sides who met last week met again in the reverse fixture. The 19-Feb 02-Mar 23-Mar previous Saturday Shrewton United had won 1-0 against Westbury United Res, a Dan Burton goal being the difference between the sides in a tight affair. Shrewton went into the game looking to close the gap on the top two but were without a TBA 2 - 0 Score for RWBTFC Score for 06-Apr 16-Mar 20-Apr

number of their normal starting eleven. Once again it was a close affair with visitors Shrewton generally on top in the opening 23-Feb 16-Feb 18-Feb 16-Mar 23-Feb 06-Apr stages of the game, creating three or four good chances in the opening 20 minutes. The best chance fell to last week's goal Bassett Shriven'm scorer Burton but he blasted wide from inside the area. Neither side was able to find the net in the opening half and it remained Royal W. goalless at the break. The deadlock was finally broken early in the second half.

to just two points. 23-Mar 09-Mar 02-Mar Town

Fourth placed Melksham Town Res were another side looking to keep in touch with the top two. They travelled to play a Lydney Purton side who were looking to build on last week’s great win over Wroughton.

William Backhouse led the way for Purton with two goals, taking him into

double figures for the season, another playing moving onto the ten-goal mark was Jack Duckers and goals from Mark Chatwin Most Frequent Winning and Callum Hall completed the scoring for Purton. Fifth placed Trowbridge Town, with just one defeat in their previous seven, 3 - 3 2 - 1 went into their game with Malmesbury Victoria Development in good form but faced a tough test against a side who 19-Feb 02-Mar 23-Feb 19-Mar 16-Mar 30-Mar 19-Feb

themselves had lost just once in their previous five matches. Leading scorer Joshua Hard put Trowbridge in front early on Green Longl'vns Holmer with his 18th of the season and it remained 1-0 at the break.

When the two sides met again on Saturday Corsham were looking to defend an W 2 - 1 W 1 - 0 W 3 - 1 W 2 - 0 W 3 - 0 W 3 - 2 W 4 - 1 W 4 - 2 W 4 - 0 W 5 - 1 W 4 - 3 W 5 - 0 W 6 - 1 W 5 - 2 W 6 - 0 W 6 - 2 W 6 - 3 W 8 - 0 W 0 unbeaten home record which had seen them go nine games unbeaten at the Southbank. They suffered an early setback 70 60 50 40 30 20 10

when Nick Mason put Royal Wootton Bassett Town in front on two minutes when a corner somehow eluded the Corsham 1 - 2 0 - 2 1 - 0 13-Apr 06-Apr 05-Mar defence and found Mason at the far post who slotted it home. Zac Hillier went close on 20 minutes when he slid in to meet a 16-Feb cross only to see it go agonisingly over the bar. He was not to be denied a minute later however when he met a superb cross from Ross Lye to slide in to net the equaliser. Steve Yeardley restored Royal Wootton Bassett Town’s lead just after the half Thrupp Fairford Brimsco & 0 - 1 0 - 3 2 - 21 - 3 1 - 0 3 - 1 2 - 0 3 - 1 3 - 21 - 21 - 3 4 - 1 0 - 3 3 - 4 0 - 2 6 - 0 13-Apr 30-Mar hour mark when he scored following a neat passing interchange with Mani Roper. Corsham restored parity again eight 23-Feb 09-Mar 05-Mar 23-Mar minutes from the break when the Bassett keeper Ross Milloy brought down a Corsham player in the box. The keeper nearly made amends when he guessed which way Ross Lye’s penalty was going but the penalty was hit without enough power that Town

he was unable to keep it out. It was Corsham who came out of the blocks quicker after the break and within two minutes of Brackley TBA 3 - 4 4 - 2 4 - 5 2 - 1 2 - 11 - 3 1 - 3 2 - 0 1 - 2 5 - 0 1 - 2 the restart they were ahead for the first time in the match when Lye headed in unmarked from a corner for his second of the 16-Feb 23-Feb 09-Mar game. Moments later Royal Wootton Bassett came close to levelling matters when a cross-come-shot from Steve Yeardley came back off the bar. However, it was Corsham who looked the more likely to score again with Dan Lardner causing the Cleeve Bishops

visitors defence problems all afternoon. Lardner went close on 70 minutes when he hit the bar with a powerful shot and went 1 - 0 0 - 1 0 - 23 - 3 1 - 2 1 - 3 2 - 2 1 - 11 - 1 2 - 1 0 - 2 2 - 1 1 - 1 3 - 1 1 - 3 0 - 1 22-Apr 12-Mar close again when he was denied by the Royal Wootton Bassett keeper Milloy. Next it was Corsham keeper Joe King who 30-Mar was called into action as he saved superbly from Yeardley to deny the visitors an equaliser. Despite the visitors pushing hard for that equaliser in the closing stages Corsham hung on to take all three points and extend that unbeaten home record to 2 - 1 0 - 2 2 - 3 1 - 3 22-Apr ten games. 23-Mar 23-Feb 30-Mar 02-Mar 19-Mar

Ludgershall Sports must dread their trips to Cricklade Leisure Centre. Last season Cricklade Town had smashed eleven Ascot goals without reply past Saturday’s visitors and the season before it had been nine.

However, once again Cricklade found their shooting boots to score freely against their visitors. Elliot Corp and Bradley Farrell put Cricklade 2-0 at the break and by the time the second half was just 15 minutes old they had increased Ardley United

their tally to six to just one for the visitors in reply. They then took their foot off the gas a bit in the closing stages and allowed 3 - 0 6 - 4 3 - 1 3 - 3 0 - 20 - 4 2 - 3 1 - 0 1 - 2 2 - 1 3 - 0 0 - 2 3 - 2 3 - 1 16-Mar 23-Mar 16-Feb 09-Mar the visitors to get another two whilst adding one more of their own to finally run out 7-3 winners. Second half scorers for Cricklade were Elliott Corp with his second of the game and ninth of the season, and both Jonathan Peachey-Score and Jason Tatum bagged a brace.

With Marlborough only ending their own four game losing streak last week it was expected to be a tight affair but in the end Marlborough Town ran out comfortable 4-0 winners. Aaron Presley scored twice to take his total for the season to 11 and there were first goals of the season for both Nathan Good and Simon Neale to give Marlborough Town the bragging rights over their near neighbours.

This signalled Bassett's worst period of the game when some of their 1979-80 Downton FC WollenSports 1 players seemed to lack the heart of the fight for an equaliser. Gradually the attitude 1980-81 Downton FC 1981-82 Avebury improved, and heads lifted and the last 20 minutes saw continued pressure on the 1982-83 Penhill Ferndale goal. Bassett should have equalised with 10 minutes remaining when Ian 1983-84 Amesbury Town 1984-85 Calne Town Johns, just back from a ligament injury, broke through only to see his shot come off the inside of the post and out. Moments later Harrison's fierce left foot drive went just wide and the Bassett faithful were beginning to think it must be one of those days. Then came that goal from Vines. Frost played a short corner with Hanrahan and his cross found a leaping Vines whose fine header down into the corner did the rest. Next week it's another difficult league fixture for Bassett when they travel to Salisbury to face the current league leaders Old Manor. The week after (February 20) sees Bassett in the semi-final of the Wiltshire Senior Cup against Bromham at Calne Town's ground. Kick-off 2pm, all supporters welcome. 26 35
