In Town today   Weston super Mare F.C.





       Keiran  Thomas  -  With  Cheltenham  since  the  age  of  11,  Keiran  progressed
       through the ranks and spent time on loan with Cinderford in 2013. He joined them
       permanently that same year and spent three years with the club, including being
       captain in 2015-2016. He joined Gloucester in 2016 and was captain for the 2017-
       2018 season before signing for Hereford FC in 2018. Spending two years with the
       Edgar Street club, he joined the Seagulls in the summer of 2020.

       Dayle Grubb - The captain came through the Weston academy and broke through
       in 2009, going on to become an essential figure on the left wing over the eight
       years that followed. He moved on to Forest Green Rovers in 2018 as he got his big
       break into league football, and after a three-game loan spell at Eastleigh, Dayle
       returned in 2020 where he has since hit 400 appearances and 100 goals for the
       club.

       Bailey Kempster - The young winger has been with the club since he was 16 and
       has featured for our under-19 team regularly. He has spent the past two seasons
       gaining experience with Willand Rovers on loan in the division below, which stands
       him in good stead for the future with Weston.

       James Dodd - Dodd came through the academy at Exeter City, and has spent time
       on loan with Taunton Town before two serious ACL injuries curtailed his progress.
       He joined Weston on loan in the 2021-2022 season and was a regular within the
       side for the campaign, before joining the Seagulls permanently in the summer.

       Jack Holmes - The midfielder spent time in the Cheltenham and Forest Green
       academies, before joining Brimscombe & Thrupp for a season at the age of 18. He
       then  decided  to  move  abroad  to  America  for  four  years  before  returning  and
       featuring for Brimscombe again, as well as featuring for Slimbridge in the 2021
       pre-season. He joined the Seagulls in August 2021.

       Lloyd Humphries - The Welshman came through the academy at Cardiff City and
       spent most of the 2016-2017 season on loan with Weston. Injuries curtailed his
       progress with Cardiff afterwards, and  his next  senior experience came with  the
       Seagulls in the 2019-2020 season after returning on loan over the festive period.
       Following his Cardiff departure in 2020, he signed for Weston permanently.
       Jacob Jagger-Cane - Another product of the Exeter academy, Jacob spent loan
       spells with Poole Town and Weymouth before joining Weston on a permanent basis
       in 2014. He established himself in the centre of the park thanks to his all-action
       displays, spending 18 months as captain between January 2018 and his departure
       in the summer of 2019 for Hereford FC. He returned on loan in November 2019 for
       a couple of months before linking back up with the side permanently in 2020.
