Jack’s Preview:
Westbury United v Bristol Manor Farm – Saturday 1 February, 3:00pm.
Bristol Manor Farm are back on the road as they travel to Westbury United. Farm have had a solid 2025 so far, with four clean sheets in five unbeaten games. The latest clean sheet was earned with ten men last week against Willand, with Louis Britton’s brace ensuring a big win after three successive draws. Dan Dodimead made both of those goals as his fine recent form continued.
Westbury sit slap bang in the middle of the table, with their ten league wins balanced by ten league defeats. They ended the previous year and started the current one with thumping 3-0 wins before a draw with Mousehole and a recent defeat to Bashley. Former Farm man Bevan Cross is the one to watch, with the youngster having an excellent personal season. Westbury are also hosting at a new ground for the first time, sharing with neighbours Frome whilst they attempt to meet regulations at their usual ground.
