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

TAVISTOCK 2-3 FALMOUTH TOWN

Falmouth Town chalked up another win on the road at Tavistock today. Three first half goals from Luke Barner, Rubin Wilson and Olly Walker were sufficient to see us over the line. Tavistock however, weren’t a pusshover and two goals from Luke Steer and Jacob Shore in the second-half ensured that Town had to fight for the win. There was some lat goal mouth action when Luke Barner had a shot headed off the line by a Tavistock defender. Luke Barner was awarded the Man of the Match award.

New Signing – Elcock Joins for Run In

Falmouth Town are pleased to announce the signing of midfielder Andy Elcock.

Elcock signs from Southern League side Tavistock having initially signed as cover for FTFC after leaving Mousehole, that has now been made permanent and goes straight into the squad for Saturday’s match against Clevedon Town.

Prior to Tavistock, Elcock worked his way through Plymouth Argyle’s youth system before moving to play for Launceston, Bath City, Paulton Rovers, Cirencester and most recently Mousehole.  

“From the outside looking in you can see the club is growing and on the up. Also having played against Falmouth a few times I know the support here is amazing! Elcock told falmouthtownafc.co.uk

“I’m a technical player with a good range of passing, I like to dictate the tempo of the game. I hope to bring even more experience to the team.”

“When a player of Andy’s experience, quality come available it is a no brainer getting him in” first team manager Andrew Westgarth said; “We have so many games in a short space of time to play, 8 in 28 days, so the squad is going to be tested.” Having won the Western League with Mousehole last season and played at a higher lever it will be great having him at the club for the run in”
