Match Preview:
Bristol Manor Farm v Tavistock – Non-League Day – Saturday 22nd March, 3pm.
Manor Farm host Tavistock as the two sides meet for the second time this month. Farm won the reverse fixture away after it was eventually completed following the previous months foggy encounter being called off. Since then, Farm have lost their previous two games late on and will be keen to put things right in this one.
Tavistock couldn’t be in better form since that defeat at home to Farm, winning all three games since then. The Lambs beat Melksham home and away before a thumping home victory over Cinderford last time out. Star striker Liam Prynn grabbed a brace in that game but their man in form is Tyler Elliot, who set up three of the four goals last week.
THE OPPOSITION:
- Stadium – Langsford Park
- Manager – Stu Henderson
- Star man – Liam Prynn
- Founded – 1888
- Last season – 11th
- Fun fact – The stadium is named after legendary local figure Thomas Langsford, and there is a carved commemorative stone.

Travel
Supporters on planning to use public transport have two main options. There are Trains that run to Avonmouth and Severn Beach every 20 minutes from Bristol Temple Meads and you will need to get off at Sea Mills station, followed by a short 5 minute walk to the ground. Supporters travelling by Bus can catch the Portway Park & Ride from the city centre every 10 minutes, and will need to get off outside the ground at the Riverleaze stop.
We offer a FREE Car Park for our supporters. However, we encourage everyone to arrive at the ground well in advance of the match start time, as the parking spaces tend to fill up quickly once players and staff begin arriving for the evening.
