Mark Flanagan (pictured with McCalmon & Wilkinson) is a cultured and quick left sided played equally at home as a fullback or on the left side of midfield. He comes to us having played for Evo-stick Souther League side Swindon Supermarine FC last season. We at Kidlington know Flanagan well as he like another of our signings this season Lewis Gabbidon was with us as a youth player and now on his return with several years of Southern League football under his belt Flanny will be a big asset for us.

James Bayliffe is a player of great experience having played at a higher level for many seasons. He is really a utility man who can play in defence, midfield or even up front, last night he made his début playing centre back in our win against Naphill. He has had many season's with Bishops Cleeve FC where he was a mainstay of their side, but now living in this area manager Martin Wilkinson has persuaded him that Kidlington is the place to be this season.

Both players are extremely welcome as our management team make their final plans ahead of this season's coming campaign.
With the amount of change which has occurred in the squad this season and looking at who's come into it we are certainly hoping for some exciting times. However having the undoubted quality is one thing applying it in the right way to achieve the desired results is another, but knowing the quality of our management team I'm sure good things lie just around the corner.
Roll on August 8th and our 1st league match home to Thatcham Town....COYG
