Intro

Somerset County League champions Chilcompton Sports stormed to the league title, only losing 2 games along the way, and will beat Wells City Reserves to top spot by at least 10 points. Bizarrely Sports got off to a terrible start; losing 5-0 to Clevedon United on the opening day of the campaign, but then didn’t lose again in the league until April. They are also on course for a double as they will face off against Middlezoy Rovers in the final of the League Cup on Wednesday coming.

Clutton will need to beat Watchet Town next weekend to ensure their place in the Premier Division next season. A victory would send former Western League side Chard Town down to Division One in their place. In midweek The Swans managed a hard-fought and much needed 1-0 win over Fry Club. Before that they suffered heavy defeats to nil against Ilminster Town, Wells Reserves and Stockwood Wanderers. Oddly, the 6-0 loss to Stockwood came directly after Clutton won the reverse fixture 3 days earlier.

The Ground

Warwick Fields lies off the main Upper Bristol Road on the western edge of the village of Clutton. Behind the near goal is a good-sized club house, with changing rooms seemingly added on at a later date. This end is raised above pitch-level allowing for an elevated view of the action. Along the far touch line is a covered standing area also above pitch-level, while between the two dugouts, at pitch-level is a tiny covered and seated stand.
