The club can confirm that goalkeeper Elliot Stokes has suffered a fracture to his skull after an accidental clash in yesterday’s game. I’m sure you all join us wishing Ells a speedy recovery. 🦁
Breaking news..... nobody has signed as of yet because there’s no point as players change their mind more than my mrs does with what to wear and you cant sign anyway until July 1st.
Yesterday's events at the Vitality Stadium underline the importance of instant medical care when suffering a cardiac arrest. If your club hasn’t got a defibrillator, get one.
Our thoughts are with Tom Lockyer & his family at this time and wish him the best in recovery 🧡
We would like to announce our newest signing! ✅️📝
The most bravest , beautiful, and courageous Lion cub there has ever been !! 🦁

Thank you, to the Smithers family, for sharing these photos with us! ❤️❤️

Ex Westham player Marlon Harewood working closely with our very own charity Dom’s Food Mission. Big big partnership coming very soon. On top of this. 3 new additions to the squad which will be announced over the weekend 🦁🦁🦁🦁
The club would like to welcome Andy Thomson back to the club. Tomo will again be part of the management team.... I’m sure our rivals have missed him 😳🤣
On brighter news, the club would like to welcome Anthony Storey, Bailo Camara, James Hull and Jay Tomlin to the squad. All have agreed financial terms 🦁🦁
Next to sign on the dotted line and probably the most valuable part of the team are our kitchen staff. Fran and Sammy will once again be doing their upmost to make the visitors go away fed and watered. 🦁🦁
Our very own Jules Lovell has again agreed to stay with the lions again next season. Anyone who can get Razor on the pitch week in week out is worth their weight in gold and she is. 🦁
It’s that time of year again when we announce the signing of....... no bastard as you can’t sign them till July 🤦🏻♂️ and if you did get a fake form, let’s hope you wiped both hands with antibacterial wipes.

Lack of match officials in grassroots football yet there’s 7/8 officials sitting in an office making VAR decisions!! 10 premier league games = too many officials not officiating where it matters... on the field.
