In Town today
Olly Mehew – Winger (25)
Olly joins us from Yate Town where he enjoyed several successful seasons, with his last
campagin in the 2021/22 season being his most successful; Olly chipped in 19 goals from
the wing in all competitions and saw Yate go on a stellar FA Cup run. Olly is a tricky winger
with bags of pace and loves to challenge defenders with his quick feet.
Dylan Jones - Winger (21)
Left sided attacker, Dylan joins Tiverton from Cinderford following a season where he turned
out for 3 clubs, starting the season off with Salisbury, then moving back to his native Wales
turning out for Merthyr before finishing the season off with Southern League Division One
South club Cinderford Town. A product of The Cardiff City Youth Academy, Dylan is a quick
winger who loves to take on a player and is definitely a bright prospect in the game.
Lucas Vowles - Striker (22)
Lucas joined us this Summer from Weston-Super-Mare, he started his career with Western
League side Clevedon Town where, after his prolific spell in their youth academy, he scored
44 goals in 104 games. This culminated in a move to Bristol Manor Farm for the covid
stricken 2020/21 season. Despite the league never getting off the ground Lucas did, scoring
5 goals in as many games in the league. 2 goals in 5 cup games rounded his ‘season’ off
with 7 goals in 10. This form led to a move to Weston-Super-Mare where he was deployed
as a backup striker, making a total of 22 appearances and scoring 4 goals, a loan spell back
to Manor Farm wasn’t enough to fire up a string of First Team appearances for Weston and
Lucas departed in order to find some regular football.
Kane Simpson - Striker (26)
Kane joins us off the back of a successful season with Frome Town last year where he played
44 times, netting 19 and assisting 16 in all competitions. In his career Kane has also turned
out for various Southern League clubs, with his CV including Paulton Rovers, Evesham and
Swindon Supermarine. He had spent the last 3 seasons at Frome Town making a total of 90
appearances and scoring 31 times.
Matt Buchan – Striker (23)
The former Cornwall under-18 player of the year joins up with Tiverton following an
impressive spell at Bideford, where he finished as top goalscorer. Matt signed for Bideford
AFC in 2021/22 initially on dual registration with Toolstation Western League side Helston .
He returned to former club Helston in March 2020 having left for Falmouth Town in 2018,
scoring 31 goals in 61 games over the previous two years but opted to begin a second spell
at Helston. He was part of Falmouth's Cornwall Senior Cup-winning side in 2019.
