SUPPORTERS GUIDE | Weston-Super-Mare (A)

The Key Info

Name: Weston-Super-Mare

Founded: 1887

Manager: Scott Rogers

Ground: The Optima

Capacity: 3,500

Nickname: The Seagulls

Founded in 1887 but disbanded twice due to the World Wars - the current club was established in 1948. The club claims to have only been relegated once in 2018 - (after three relegation reprieves, in 2007, 2008 and 2010). The Seagulls although continuously competitive at this level, have never achieved promotion to Step 1, with their highest ever league finish being 7th in 2012 when the league was known as the Conference South.

Big Moments:

FA Cup Run 2025/26

Despite their ropey run in the National League South this season, Weston-Super-Mare had a record breaking FA Cup run by reaching the Third Round Proper and only losing out by one goal to League Two opposition Grimsby Town.

Despite starting the season well and continuing to stay in the top 7 for the majority of the season, Weston have had some mixed results as of late, and a problem with consistency - dropping out of the playoff places for the first time on Matchday 32 after losing 1-0 away at then relegation fighters Slough Town.

Form Guide:

🟢🔴🟢🔴🟢

28 Mar 2026	Maidenhead United	Away	Won	2–1
24 Mar 2026	Worthing	Home	Lost	2–3
21 Mar 2026	Ebbsfleet United	Away	Won	3–1
17 Mar 2026	Tonbridge Angels	Home	Lost	0–1
14 Mar 2026	Hampton & Richmond	Home	Won	2–0

A big fixture for both on the grand scheme of things, with only one other team in the playoff contention playing on the night - a win for the Tudors would move them up to 2nd and only 5 points from league leaders Dorking - and 1 point clear of current second place Worthing. A win for Weston-Super-Mare would move them safely into fifth place with more of a cushion for error.

With the reverse fixture ending in the Tudors favour with 3 goals and a clean sheet, they will travel away seeking the same fate especially after dropping vital points against league leaders Dorking at the weekend, they'll be looking to get back to winning ways.

Weston come off the back of an away trip to Maidenhead which saw them 1-2 victors at the hands of Louis Britton and Leo Pecover.
