The Magpies, who lead Combined Counties League Division One with ten wins from 12 matches, are ambitious for promotion to Step 5 after being moved from the Spartan South Midlands League in the summer.

But it was the club’s post on social media last Saturday evening showing the 20-year-old penning a contract which caused a huge stir.
Tabor was pictured with Atkins and champagne glasses as Town announced the move and, after receiving praise but also criticism, the Spratleys Meadow boss admits it was a calculated gamble, as well as “bit of a wind-up”.
