Radstock Town FC - A History



       par cularly trauma c campaign which saw the playing budget withdrawn to keep the club
       going, the chairman resign, two mangers leave and ended with the club being relegated!
       Since then though the Chairman and commi ee has worked very hard to bring stability
       back to the club and despite some dark moments the team remain in the first division.


       Today: Season 22/23 was a par cu larly difficult one for the club.
       Despite reaching the play-off's at the end of the previous campaign most of the squad
       decided to play their foot ball elsewhere!
       That  and  the  late  appointment  of  the  new management  team  of Ray  John ston,  Elliot
       Gibbons and Ian Lanning had to start the season with a makeshi  eleven, however, hard
       work and team spirit saw the side stay compe   ve throughout the campaign.
       Scroll on a year and a er a posi ve summer the same management team and supporters
       are op mis c that this season will see us ba ling at the right end of the table!
       A er  winning  the  league  last  season  the  reserves  will  be  led  this  year  by  Anthony
       Morrison, Taylor Morrison & Rob Johnson following the resigna  on of Liam Watson.
       Our very successful under 18's will once again be in the very capable hands of Ian Lanning
       and Jamie Pur nell.
