NEW SIGNING – JACOB BOWKER JOINS FALMOUTH TOWN

NEW SIGNING – JACOB BOWKER JOINS FALMOUTH TOWN

Falmouth Town are pleased to confirm the signing of midfielder Jacob Bowker.

Jacob, son of ex Falmouth Town manager Andy joins from Tavistock having previously played for St Blazey, Ivybridge and Plymouth Argyle academy.

“It’s a great club, with a great atmosphere on match day. My dad Andy used to play here and loved his time at the club. I know a couple of the lads and of course Westy. So when I heard the offer it was hard to say no.” Bowker told falmouthtownafc.co.uk

“I believe I can bring a lot of calmness to the team in the way I play. Open up gaps in the opposition, create opportunities, being direct and bring a lot of energy.”

“My aim is to come here and help the team pick up as many points. They have been on a very good run of form since Christmas. So to chip in and help where I can is my main aim. And possibly even play-offs.”

“I’m never one to flood the squad but with a couple injuries and still close to twenty games to go it was important to strengthen the group for the run in. The last couple seasons our signings around and just after Xmas have really given us a bounce and helped us kick on.

Bowks is player that will get the supporters up on their feet with his attacking play. Looking forward to seeing what he can bring to this group” Andrew Westgarth told falmouthtownafc.co.uk

FALMOUTH TOWN 4-1 DIDCOT TOWN

FALMOUTH TOWN 4-1 DIDCOT TOWN

Falmouth Town made it four wins from four in this one-sided Southern League encounter against mid-table Didcot Town at a wet and windy Bickland Park.

Falmouth dominated from the start but had to wait until 22 minutes to take the lead. It was in-form striker Rubin Wilson who scored his 5th goal in four games, shrugging off his defender before steering the ball inside the post past Didcot keeper Bedwell.

Didcot equalised on 27 minutes from a rare attack when new signing  Dan Warre capitalised on a defensive mistake.

However, the home side deservedly went in at half-time leading after Luke Barner found Olly Walker at the far post to smash the ball past Bedwell.

The second half started in similar fashion with Falmouth dictating the play, They finally put the game to bed after goals from Jared Sims  after 83 minutes and Luke Barner at the 90 minute mark with the pitch almost unplayable.

Star Man:  Luke Barner (Falmouth Town)

Thanks must go to the ground staff and volunteers, whose work yesterday made it possible for the game to go ahead today.
