In Town today

Jordan Thomas - Jordan has come up through the Procision Academy system and was
handed his chance at Southern League level last year by Didcot Town. Has made the switch
to his local team in the Millers over the summer. He loves to run with the ball and try to
create things in the final third. Became a firm “fan’s favourite” last season with some fine
performances and multiple eye-catching goals.
Amer Awadh - 24-year-old forward who came through the youth system at Oxford City,
playing primarily for their Nomads side, though he progressed to make a few first team
appearances. Had been playing for Fanja SC in Oman prior to joining Banbury in February
2018, whom he made 84 appearances for. He started last season at Nuneaton Borough and
joined the Millers from Stratford Town mid-way through the season.
Luca James – Young midfielder Luca steps up to the Millers First team having impressed
whilst playing for the club’s U23 side. Is presently studying for a degree as part of the
Procision Academy side and balances his academic studies with training and playing for the
U23s. He also takes an active role in the Procision operation and can often be seen taking
coaching sessions. This will be his first taste of senior men’s football.
Latrell Humphrey-Ewers - Latrell is the latest product of the Oxford City FC academy to
join us at Eynsham Park. The versatile midfielder can play in a number of roles in the centre
of the park. He made his senior debut for OCFC earlier in the season, against Eastbourne
Borough.

FORWARDS

Lance Williams - Returned to Eynsham Park from local rivals Didcot Town, hardworking
forward Lance has shown his abilities in previous seasons with the Millers. Another of the
2016/17 season squad, he helped lift the Oxfordshire Senior Cup and set records in both the
FA Cup and FA Trophy. He is excellent on the ball and has immense aerial presence.
Levi Steele - 21-year-old Steele joined us from fellow Oxfordshire side Easington Sports;
he is a prolific striker whom certainly knows where the back of the net is. Previously played
for Southam United in Hellenic League Division Two and bagged 57 goals in just 36
competitive games for them. In 19 appearances last season, he scored 16 goals for FC
Stratford. Easington Sports then came calling in November 2021 where he made 10 scoring
an impressive 12 goals.
Salhin Abubaker – Sal joined the Millers from league rivals Swindon Supermarine on
Christmas Eve, having found his playing time limited. He was previously with fellow league
sides Metropolitan Police and Walton Casuals last season, making eleven appearances for
the Met Police after joining them from Walton Casuals. The two previous seasons he played
for another fellow league side Hartley Wintney between 2018 and 2020. Sal is a pacey
forward who likes to take on the opposition and commit players.
Twariq Yusuf – Joins the Millers on an initial one-month loan for Step 2 Brackley Town.
Former Kidlington and Ardley United player, Twariq signed for The Saints after an impressive
pre-season in 2021. He’s one of the early Procision Football Academy graduates, so will be
well known by many connected to the club.
Tom Wynn-Davies – Swindon Town youngster who joins the Millers on loan for the
remainder of the 22/23 season. The 18-year-old, joined The Robins back in November 2021
and has one first-team appearance under his belt, as a second half substitute in Town’s
defeat to Crystal Palace Under-21s in the EFL Trophy back in August. He’s already spent time
out on loan this term, having had a short spell at Wantage Town, he scored seven times in
his eight appearances, contributing three assists having joined them at the beginning of
January.
