Paulton Rover's Manager, Nick Bunyard, has this week announced the signings of four new players ahead of the 2014/15 season.

The players include Jon Davies, from Poole Town. Jon is a quick, skilful winger. Also joining the team next season is Mike Bryant, from Yate Town. Mike was Yate's Skipper and is a midfielder. Olly Knowles, from Weston-super-Mare, is another player coming to Paulton. Olly was a pro at Exeter and is studying at Hartbury College. He's a talented young player who can play in a variety of positions. Tom Seery, from Yate Town, is also joining the squad. Tom is a young centre half who has been outstanding for Yate over the last couple of years. He's quick, strong, technically good and should develop into a top centre half. Nick said: "We are also still in discussions with a striker who we are very keen to bring in. He'll bring a wealth of experience in the pro game and should be massive for us if we can get him. That will then be it in terms of player recruitment."

The team look likely to lose Nick McCootie and possibly, Brandon Barnes, to a Spanish Third Division side being taken over by the outgoing Tiverton Manager, John Clarkson. Scott Brice, Dean Evans, Mile Perrott, Josh Klein-Davies and Sam Teale have already committed themselves to Paulton for next season, whilst experienced keeper, Kyle Phillips, has penned a one year rolling contract.
