UP NEXT: Willand Rovers F.C. (A)

This Wednesday, Lee Lashenko’s Bristol Manor Farm will be looking to bounce back from their 3-1 home defeat against Melksham Town at the weekend. Here is all the information you will need to know ahead of the farm’s midweek fixture in South Devon.

Despite Kyle Tooze’s exquisite volley midway through the first-half on Saturday, the Farm were well beaten by the better side – and will need to up their game when they travel to Willand tomorrow evening. The Farm will be without central defender Sam Boulton due to work commitments, but the rest of the first-team squad will be available for selection by Manager Lashenko.

Willand have made a strong start to the 2021/22 Southern League Division One South season, collecting six points (two wins) from their opening five matches in the division. The Farm defence will need to be cautious of Alfie Mouldon who scored a hat-trick in Willand’s 3-2 win over Slimbridge on Saturday.

THE OPPOSITION:

Willand Rovers Football Club is a football club based in Willand, near Exeter, in Devon.

The club moved to their present home of The Stan Robinson Stadium, in the 1950s and were playing in the Devon and Exeter Football League.

The club in 1990 was relegated to the Senior Division of the Devon and Exeter Football League as their ground was not considered up to the standard of the premier division. However, the club went back to the premier division for the 1991–92 season.

For the start of the 1992–93 season they were among the founder members of the Devon League; They went on to win the winning that league twice before gaining promotion to the Western League Division One in 2001. They won the Western League Division One title in 2004–05, earning another promotion to the Western League Premier Division where they have finished in the top six during each of their seasons at that level.

Willand Rovers made it to the Les Phillips Cup Final in 2006, losing to Corsham Town, but went one better in 2007, winning the Cup after a final against Welton Rovers. They reached the Fifth Round of the FA Vase in 2009–10.
