The FA have ruled that, due to an administrative error, Willand Rovers have been ejected from the FA Trophy. The allegation involved other matches having played a player for whom they did not have International Clearance.

Paulton, who were beaten 3-0, have been reinstated subject to that appeal, and played at home to Larkhall Athletic on Tuesday night. [The match had not taken place at the time of going to press].

On Saturday, the Reserves, in the League, are away at Strode College in Street to Lantokay; kick-off 2 p.m.

The Under-18 team are at home in a Western Counties Floodlit Youth League game on Thursday, 7th November to Welton Rovers; kick-off 7.30 p.m. This game will also be played for the Bert West Cup, with a penalty shootout if level on ninety minutes.

Bert West was a committee member at Paulton Rovers, who died 26 years ago. His family, who will be present at the game, presented a cup in his memory to be played for annually by the two Youth teams.
