Programme Printing & Sponsor Front Cover Photo:Shaun Carter is wrestled out of it at Bracknell Wootton Bassett Town FC EDITORIAL would like to thank our kit Good afternoon and welcome back to Rylands Way for this Uhlsport Hellenic Premier League sponsors for this season: fixture against Flackwell Heath. We wish a warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters from Flackwell Heath who have made the long journey for this fixture and wish them Senior Section a safe journey home. It is with great sadness that I have to report the death of our former Chairman John Reynolds. First Team – TBA John was Chairman for three seasons from 1994-95 through to 1996-97 having joined the Club in First Team Tracksuits & T-shirts – C.S. Building Services the early 1980s when son Marcus was playing for our Youth Team (the Club had just one youth side at that time), a side managed by myself. When I went to University a month or so into the and Macmillan Cancer Support season, John and my father took over the running of the Youth side that was at the time playing Reserves – Ganges Indian Cuisine in the Mid Wilts League. The side included some very good players including Danny Groom, Steve Thomas, Paul Gerrish, Dave Alstowe and Gavin Russ, as well as Johns son Marcus. The Under 18 Floodlit – Quickmovenow.com side did well in the league and also made the Cup final at Devizes Town where they met Devizes Saints in the final back May 1981, a game which I still hold a copy of the match day programme. Ladies – Aftech Sheet metal & fabrications and Following this initial involvement in the Youth set up John remained involved in the Club and, as bristol batteries noted above, eventually took over the helm as Chairman. After stepping down as Chairman John continued writing match reports for the programme and was still writing the reports when the Clubs website first came into existence. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad YOUTH SECTION time. Having not made a First Team game for some time it was good to catch two games last week Under 18 – Aftech Limited played down my neck of the woods. On a cold Wednesday night it was disappointing to see the Under 16 Girls - SciMAT Ltd side go down 3-0 at Ascot after such an excellent first half. It was an eventful game and Scoops match report on the disappointing evening at Ascot Racecourse is included in tonights Under 16 - K & M Developments, C.S. Building Services, programme. The 3-0 score certainly flattered the home side who played the whole of the second A.T. Kitchin Homes half with just ten men and the last couple of minutes with just nine. Once we went behind you could see the confidence visibly drain from the side and this was carried over into the first half on Under 15 - GSL UK Limited Saturday away at Rayners Lane in the cup. In what was probably the worst half I have seen from Under 14 Girls - TBA the side all season, there was a total lack of confidence on the ball and a lot of arguing amongst the players and we really did not get much of a look in against what was a mid-table Division Under 14A – The Barber Shop, One side. A stern talk at half time from coach Turner seemed to do the trick though, as a much PAS Construction, CCTV Nationwide, improved second half saw us through to the next round courtesy of another two goals from Sam Collier, taking his total in all competitions to 16 for the season. Surehome Construction, Wason & Webb Looking at what is in tonights programme, the From the Archives feature this week looks back Under 14B – TBA to 1960-1 when Mickey Jefferies was banging in the goals for Wootton Bassett Town in the Under 12 – C.S. Building Services Wiltshire League Premier Division. The Player Profile this week features Craig Bowden.

Under 10B - WGS Power & Lighting Ltd, High Motive Please note that the First Team are again at home on Tuesday night when a much improved Under 9 - S.D.C.

Recent artice by Stuart Smedley for the LSE Newspaper It was quite fitting that less than 24 hours after Gary Lineker asked the poignant question whether England could win the next World Cup in a true tear-jerker of a documentary that current Three Lions boss Fabio Capello called up uncapped, 33-year-old forward Kevin Davies. That is after attempting, unsuccessfully it must be added, to lure Emile Heskey out of international retirement. Surely that answered the question posed by the jug-eared face of Walkers Crisps and Match of the Day there and then, by demonstrating how bare the cupboard the Italian has to choose from actually is. When youre considering giving debuts to players closer to the end, rather than the beginning, of their careers it suggests the future is rather bleak. Merely to float that particular question though, after the shower of s**t produced during the summer in South Africa, was ludicrous. Particularly so given Lineker witnessed firsthand the tragicomedy enacted by Capellos merry men, most of whom comprised what was billed as English footballs Golden Generation. Having failed miserably to live up to that hype not just this year, but at every tournament since 2002, failure to qualify for the 2008 European Championships in Austria and Switzerland being the nadir, a less precious metal should really prefix the term generation used to describe the era Gerrard, Lampard, Owen, Terry et al have been a part of.
