Salisbury beat Laverstock as pre-season friendlies get underway

Salisbury won 6-1 away at Laverstock and Ford of the Wessex League in the first of their pre-season friendlies.

Salisbury started the game with a mix of players from last season, some of the new signings and two trialists for the first 45 minutes.

The Whites played the ball nicely, with Jaden Perez x 2, Rafa Ramos, and Craig Fasanmade contributing goals to the 4-0 lead at halftime.

There were changes at halftime and again on the hour mark, with Salisbury finishing the game with seven trialists on the pitch, plus Theo Lewis, who played in midfield.

Salisbury added two more through Josh Hedges and a trialist, whilst Laverstock also grabbed a consolation goal.

Celebratory Souvenir Programme

The club is delighted to announce that a celebratory souvenir programme has been created as a reminder of the successes of the 2023/24 season.

The beautiful special has been put together by Michael Berkeley, one of the club’s official photographers, with input from various volunteers.

It features photographs from both Michael and Roger Elliott documenting the season with words from chairman Ian Hammond and Brian Dutton.

Inside the programme, there is a full set of statistics compiled by Dave Todd and the match reports from Pete Martin from both the playoff semi-final against Gosport and the final away at AFC Totton.

The Salisbury Journal has also supported the programme by providing the pages from our local newspaper, which celebrated the club’s promotion in its edition published on Thursday, May 9th, 2024.

The programme is in an A4-sized form printed on glossy paper and a genuine collector item that will be a fantastic season of success.

You can purchase your copy through Salisbury FC’s Supporters Club on match days in the bar, in the club shop, or at the club office when it is open.

The programme is priced at £10 for Supporters Club members and £15 for non-members. There is a limited number; make sure you get yours early so you don’t miss out.
