Programme Printing & Sponsor Front Cover Photo: Mark McMeeking Wootton Bassett Town FC EDITORIAL would like to thank our kit Good afternoon and welcome back to Rylands Way for our penultimate Uhlsport Hellenic sponsors for this season: Premier League home fixture against Wantage Town. We wish a warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters from Wantage who have made the long journey down the M4 Senior Section for this fixture and wish them a safe journey home. First Team – TBA Wantage Town are one of six teams challenging for the Premier Division title which will almost certainly go down to the final day of the season. Current leaders are Slimbridge who have three First Team Tracksuits & T-shirts – C.S. Building Services games to go, including games against Highworth Town and Ardley United, both of whom are and Macmillan Cancer Support also in the title run in. Ardley themselves have three games; Wantage Town, Highworth Town Reserves – Ganges Indian Cuisine and Slimbridge their three opponents! All very exciting. Under 18 Floodlit – Quickmovenow.com For Wootton Bassett Town safety from relegation has now been achieved and the squad can hopefully enjoy the remaining fixtures without the pressure. The win against Ascot United on Ladies – Aftech Sheet metal & fabrications and Tuesday night was well deserved and congratulations to Alex Green on his return to form and a bristol batteries hat-trick. Not sure why the Ascot fans and players were moaning about the last two Bassett goals, both were onside and good well taken goals but blaming linesmen seems to be a habit of late for our visitors. YOUTH SECTION Just a quick plug for next weeks Wiltshire County FA Youth Cup Final next week which sees Under 18 – Aftech Limited Wootton Bassett Town Under 18s take on New College Academy on Tuesday April 19th, 7.30pm kick off at Bremhill View, home of Calne Town. Danny Grooms side will be hoping to Under 16 Girls - SciMAT Ltd go one better than the Bassett Under 18 class of 2004/05, who made the final only to be defeated Under 16 - K & M Developments, C.S. Building Services, by Westbury United. Your support would be appreciated by the Youth side on Tuesday. Unfortunately I will miss this one due to a business trip to South Africa. A.T. Kitchin Homes Well done to the Youth teams on the results they achieved in Holland last week.
