First Team Player Of The Month
Following his departure from Bridgwater Town,
@ChazWhite
has made an instant impression at the club.
His performances have been outstanding this month and he’s deservedly been voted player of the month by his teammates.
#PlayerOfTheMonth
@middlezoyrovers
would like to thank
@AndrewVenning_
for his commitment and contribution this year. Andy has decided to retire from football after a great season. He may only look 21 but we know different. There is talk of Andy taking the vacant Lino opportunity at the Club 🙌
Would like to add that the officials were superb today, was nice to have a ref you could talk to and he spoke back to you, got all of his decisions spot on. Not the first time we have had Martin Veater this season and every time he’s been brilliant. 👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks to our hosts for a superb playing surface👏
Johnny will always be rembered for what he did for our club on and off the pitch and we would not be where we are today without him. Our thoughts are with his boys Dave and Joe who both spent many years playing for the club, and the rest of Johnnys family.
