Mousehole 0-1 Yate Town
Written by: Pablo Woolls-Blanco
In a game masked by wet and windy weather conditions, Nick McCootie’s 6th minute penalty was enough for an impressive Yate Town side to pick up an invaluable three points away to Mousehole.
Mousehole started brightly, but after conceding to an early penalty, found life difficult in the opening 45 minutes. Goal scorer McCootie and the man who won the spot kick, Calum English-Brown, caused huge issues for the Seagulls’ defence all afternoon.
Jake Ash’s side huffed and puffed in the second half, largely keeping Yate at bay, and had by far the two best chances of the second period falling once again to Micthell, who failed to convert. On a very rainy and windy afternoon at Trungle Parc, it was the impressive away side who secured all three points.

JAYLAN WILDBORE JOINS MOUSEHOLE AFC
Mousehole AFC are delighted to announce the signing of 19-year-old forward Jaylan Wildbore.
Wildbore joins Mousehole having recently played for Southern League Premier Central side Stratford Town at Step 3, and before that two years at Fulham’s academy.
He has also benefited from having an early football education at Leicester City before bursting into a fantastic spell at Burton Albion, attracting the interest of Fulham. Wildbore is described as having a tremendous character and desire at such a young age and is a tall and strong forward with an eye for goal.
He will join two other former pro-club Academy players who arrived at Trungle Parc and took up residence locally in the summer – defenders Ryan Barrett (ex-Newcastle United) and Morgan Lewis (from Cardiff City). They will work together within the club’s unique technical coaching programme under the expert guidance of vastly experienced Head Coach, Andy Graham, supplemented by the remaining part-time players’ twice-weekly training sessions.
The Seagulls’ latest addition to the group shared his first thoughts as a Mousehole player after training on Thursday night:
“I want to get back to full-time football and training every day to keep sharp. I’ve been looking at a lot of the games and I just think, we get in great areas and keep possession well, we’re just lacking that final product and hopefully I can come in and score some goals. I’ve settled in really well – there’s a great attitude from the boys and you can see they really want to win.”
On what the coaching staff have asked of him during early conversations and his skillset as a forward:
“I think they just want a bit of energy upfront, someone that’s always looking to help the team secure the ball but also someone who can get in behind as well and score some goals. I’m very quick off the line – I love to play off a centre-back’s shoulder – constantly threatening, running in behind and being in and around the box looking for goals.”
On his excitement at getting started and potentially debuting this weekend:
“Honestly, I can’t wait. It’s been a while since I’ve had a flow of games and I’m really looking forward to seeing the fans and getting started.”
Manager Jake Ash expressed his delight at Wildbore’s signing:
“We are really excited Jaylan is here. Having seen a lot of footage of him, he has been everything we expected this week. His movement is excellent. He’s one of those strikers I used to hate marking in that he’s always on the move, looking for the next pass or action. He’s added a real energy and voice into the sessions this week and I love his genuine enthusiasm and hunger to be better.”
Ash continued: “He’s still got lots of areas of his game to develop and I’m confident he will do that here and be a great addition to the squad.
Mousehole’s Head of Football Adam Fletcher shares Ash’s optimism with Wildbore’s addition to the squad:
“Jaylan is a really exciting addition to an already strong group of forward players. We have been looking for a striker who enjoys scoring all sorts of goals for some time now and Jaylan is that type of number 9. After speaking to him it was obvious he was going to be a good fit for the group. He’s ambitious, confident, and raring to go.”
Jaylan Wildbore will be sponsored by Gary Hocking. The newcomer will be available for Mousehole’s next home game this Saturday (20th January, 3pm) against Yate Town in the Southern League Division One South.
