Supermarine have swooped to sign former Swindon Town
goalkeeper Matt Bulman from rivals Cirencester Town. Bulman's heroics between
the posts were one of the few highlights for Cirencester last season as the club
were relegated from the Southern League Premier Division, and Marine manager
Mark Collier was delighted to get his man.
"When somebody of Bully's calibre becomes available you have
to go out and sign them," said Collier, who has also added former Clevedon Town
striker Steve Cook to his Hunts Copse squad. "Bully is not just an excellent
goalkeeper, but a real character in the dressing room too. "Tom King was my
player of the season last year so to have two goalkeepers of that standard is a
real bonus. They will both be pushing hard for a starting place."
Both Bulman and Cook have penned one-year deals with the
South Marston side as Collier looks to shape his team for next season. The
capture of Cook will add depth to an already burgeoning forward line, but the
manager insists a sizeable squad will be vital. "We don't have a reserve team
here at Supermarine so it's important that we have competition for places," he
said. "Steve knows the situation and he will have to fight for his shirt like
everyone else. "But he is a proven goalscorer and it shows we are looking to
move forward by bringing him to the club.''
