Players
Miles Pengelley (19) – Versatile defender and Club Captain
SPONSORED BY RIVA
Guernsey Under 21 defender who is mature beyond his years. Excellent both in defence and attack and was the scorer from left back of the reformed Tics first ever goal three minutes into their first fixture.
Vijay Wiltshire (23) – Central Midfield – Team Captain
SPONSORED BY SAFFREYS
Very hard working central midfield player, who skippers the side, by leading by example.
Luke Graham (20) – Centre Back – Vice Captain
SPONSORED BY J. W. RIHOY
A great signing from Ashton FC where he was reserve team captain at 18 years old and first team regular last season. Strong in either centre of defence or further forward into midfield.
Angus Mackay (23) - defender
SPONSORED BY RUBIS
THE England Universities and former
Oxford United youth team captain will join the Tics early in September
after returning from the USA where he has been coaching.
Despite his name Angus is very English - he hails from Swindon - and is
committed to making Tics a force in CI football and making all our
players better footballers.
Tom Creed (18) – Goalkeeper
SPONSORED BY LA COLLINETTE
Guernsey Under 18 goalkeeper for 2008 / 2009 season. Tall, athletic and a great shot stopper who is destined for at least Guernsey Under 21
recognition this season.
Lee Savident (32) - Goalkeeper
SPONSORED BY CENKOS
Ex professional cricketer with Hampshire CCC and goalkeeper with Totton & Eling n the Hampshire Leagues, where he won the golden gloves award.
Richard Moore (20) – Right Back
SPONSORED BY COUNTRY BUTCHERS
Guernsey Under 21 defender who has pace to overlap and make a telling contribution in attack. Another player with potential for further Guernsey
representative appearances this season.
James Ashplant (18) – Centre Back
SPONSORED BY MERCURY BEMS
Tall, strong and athletic centre back with potential to become a key player in The Tics first team squad. A crack clay target shooter having been born into a shooting family.
Wing Lai (19) – Right Midfield
SPONSORED BY SPECSAVERS
Quick and tricky right midfielder with the height to cause problems for any unsuspecting opposition left back.
Ben Duff (30) – Centre Midfield
SPONSORED BY HSBC
Along with the skipper, works very hard in the engine room of the team. Ben has represented Guernsey at county level. His versatility and discipline is a big virtue.
Etienne Le Prevost (17) – Centre Midfield
SPONSORED BY ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS
Another youngster with immense potential. Very quick feet in midfield with an excellent eye for distributing the ball forward to our quick strikeforce. Invariably tops in the Beep tests in pre-season.
Jacques Ogier (16) - Forward
SPONSORED BY OGIER & MARSHALL BUILDERS
The baby of the team and son of manager Steve. Probably the fastest member of the team with pace to destroy most defences if given the chance.
Went to the Island Games as part of the island's sorint relay squad and also ran in the 100 and 200 metres.
Danny Marquand (20) - Forward
SPONSORED BY CONNECT
Another forward with pace and trickery. Scored a stack of goals playing at Under 21 League level for Belgraves last season without ever breaking into the first team. But has the potential to add many more at first team level this season with the Tics. A butcher by day working for Johns on the Bridge.
James Mullen (19) – Right Midfield
SPONSORED BY RICKETY BRIDGE
Another recent signing from Northerners, with potential to develop with the Tics into a first team regular and push for Under 21 Guernsey recognition.
Strong and very midfielder, who will strengthen the midfield pool of players. Tasty left foot and a natural. Mad Man. City fan but not as mad as his dad who christened James with a long list of names of City greats.
Mark Gauvain (19) – Full back
SPONSORED BY GUERNSEY PETROLEUM DIST.
Good solid full back who has just arrived via North and their successful under-21 squad.
Already showing signs of a real quality defender in the making and with big potential as a central defender.
Tom Jenkins (18) - forward
SPONSORED BY OGH
Small and skilful player who comes to Tics via St Martin's.
Very skilful and busy playing off the main striker or on the flank.
Sam Le Huray (16) forward
THE best golfer in the squad by a country mile and also a skilful footballer with many a goal behind him during his spell with the Vale Rec under-14 and more recently under-16 sides.
Craig Farnham (midfielder/forward)
A regular member of the St Martin's first team squad in recent seasons and an under-rated creative performer.
Aaron Gallie (Defender)
ALTHOUGH rifght back is his best position he can play also at centre-back.
Has in recent years featured regularly in the Saints first team but this year seemed to have fallen out of favour.
Damien Le Tocq (defender/midfielder)
A FREQUENT scorer for Saints' second team and under-21s he has occasionally played in the first team at St Martin's from where he joined us in late November.
Tom Poole (midfield/forward)
Info to follow.

year there and played for Bashley in what is now known as the Zamaretto
League Premier Division.
