Long serving Brakes legend Josh Blake has been granted a testimonial for his 10 years outstanding service to the club.  Ever popular Josh who is currently on loan at Daventry Town is still hopeful of fighting his way back into the Brakes first team.

Josh scored the opening goal for the Brakes in August 2000 on the resurrection of the club in Division 2 of the Midland Football Combination and is the only player who has succeeded in representing the Brakes at every level since reformation in the exciting progress of the club.  His contribution has been immense.

The testimonial will take place at 2pm on Sunday 25th April at the New Windmill Ground between a Brakes All Star X1 and a Non-League All Star X1.  Representatives of the Supporters Club, Vice Presidents Club and Club Ambassador Brian Knibb will be involved in planning the event.  Further details will be published in due course.

Leamington 2 Bedford Town 0

Brakes recorded a relatively straightforward victory over a Bedford Town side that are nervously looking over their shoulders at the relegation zone in the Premier Division. Sights at the New Windmill Ground are now firmly locked on the other end of the table, after a marvellous run that has catapulted Paul Hollerans' side into the Play Off positions. Richard Batchelor grabbed his second goal of the week, and the equally hard working Matt Lewis finally got some reward for his endeavour with a second half clincher.

During the half time interval of the Zamaretto Southern League Premier Division match versus Stourbridge at the New Windmill Ground, Leamington FC Supporters' Club Committee Members Jim Miller and Vince Taylor presented a cheque for £1,000 to Leamington FC Chairman Jim Scott.

Leamington FC Supporters Club raised the revenue from the sale of their 'Supporters Club Scratch Card that cost £1 and give participants the chance to win cash prizes from £1 up to a jackpot of £100. They are available in the club house on match days, as well as outlets in pubs, clubs, shops etc in the Leamington area.

Jim Scott said, 'We are extremely pleased with the donation and the Supporters Club contribution to the development of Leamington FC. This will help fund the new stand and it is pleasing to see everyone working together to support the progress of the club. It is greatly appreciated.'

Leamington FC are pleased to announce that the club has been awarded a grant of almost £9000 from the Football Foundation towards the cost of the new 100 seated stand which will be erected week commencing 15th March.

This will ensure that the club meets the Step 3 Ground Grading requirements before the deadline of 31 March 2010.  The club would like to thank all those who have contributed towards raising funds and also to say a huge thank you to others who gave their time and energy in preparation and building of the stand foundations.

We thank the Football Foundation staff for their guidance and support and for their most welcome financial support.
