Tom Hutchinson Lifts The Blue Square North Trophy

On a wet afternoon at the newly refurbished New Windmill Ground Tom Hutchinson, Captain of Leamington Brakes FINALLY got his hands on the cup. Cheered on by a massive 2,313 people including Aston Villa manager David Beckham the fans went wild and news came out that a possible link up with Aston Villa was on the cards.


Final League Table


Brakes win the league. They had the last laugh over Hitchin Town because Brakes got promoted and Hitchin Town get relegated

David Beckham Interview

So with Leamington Brakes getting promoted the board announced today that Aston Villa managed by David Beckham are one of 4 teams being considered as a Parent team for Brakes.

Sky Sports News = Red

David Beckham = Green

Hello David you are live on Sky Sports News. In the press today there is a report you might be becoming affiliated with Leamington Brakes. Who are they and what do you know about them?

They are a club in one of the lower leagues, the BSN, aren't they? They've done very well this season to get promoted and all. They also have a bloody good manager, that's my opinion. That's what I know about them.

Yes there manager is Jason Lippitt. They are going to be in the Blue Square Premier next season but why do the board at Aston Villa think this is a good move? Surely you would be better with like a Championship or League 1 team?

Leamington Brakes are a club that's going places. Why would the board not want to be affiliated with such a club? This can only bring benefits for both sides and I think it's an easy decision, really.

Have you been following them if so who has impressed you the most? Can you see Villa youngsters being sent there for experiance?

I have, obviously. I don't think anyone who has a real passion for football are doing the same. Leamington have been such an exciting club and a lot of my fellow coaches talk about it sometimes. I can't wait for us to link up. As for the youngsters side, I think it's a great way for them to get some experience, and I will definitely be looking to send my youngsters there if they can't get a game - as long as Jason wants them, of course.

It might not have been a very long interview but it gave us an insight into why Villa are looking at getting Leamington on board to secure good players and loan Brakes some of there up and coming talent.
Nice interview there Jason :)
Great results and congratulations on winning the title!
Thanks blue and LJO. I am happy to have won the title and even David Beckham wanted to talk about me and my wonderful team :)
Great interview mate :) Very intresting
Great job winning the title! Double (or more?) promotion on the horizon perhaps? :)
I am looking to be in League 2 at end of next season
Brilliant interview and some brilliant answers from the genius that is David Beckham.

;)

Pre Season Signings

Brakes have not had the busiest transfer window but have signed some players and some have also left the club.

Smajl Suljevic (pictured below) became Leamington Brakes record signing this month. Suljevic a utility man can play Midfield and up front is looking forward to living up to his price tag. Suljevic who had been in the first team at Walsall decided to 'go to a team who wanted him' this suggested that he was not wanted to play for Walsall anymore.

There have some players surplus to requirements. Damien Mozika, David Perpetuini and Jimmy Sangare are the ones worth mentioning. Mozika just complained when he was at Brakes and Perpetuini who was actually part of the first team but with new players coming in he was allowed to leave. Sangare was liked by Jason Lippitt but he decided he had no future and wanted Jimmy to get some first team football.

Partnership Created

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/706/peterbrough.jpg/http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/145/0x600.jpg/
Today saw Randy Lerner and Alex Goddard sit down infront of the assembled media to announce that they are now officially in partnership with each other.

Goddard, smiling from ear to ear said that to be associated with such a team is a 'honour' and that Brakes aim was to be joining their new friends in the Premiership.
Lippitt is said to be very happy and has even been spotted grabbing a bite to eat in Brimingham with Beckham. This is surely going to be a great partnership and Brakes hope to help Villa out in any way possible in the future.
