Play-Off Chasing Lambs Borrow Swindon Striker

Tavistock AFC, pushing for a place in the Pitching In Southern League Division One South play-offs in their first season at Step 4 level, have brought in young striker Oscar Massey on loan from League Two side Swindon Town.

The 19-year-old, who made his debut off the bench in Saturday’s terrific win over league leaders Sholing, joined the Robins in June 2022.

A prolific goalscorer at youth level, Massey joined Plymouth Argyle’s academy from his home-town club Truro City when he was 10 years old, working his way up through the ranks and appearing for the white Tigers` under-18s when he was just 13.

During this period he also represented England at under-15 level.

Upon his release by Argyle at the end of the 2021/22 season, Swindon moved quickly to secure his services.

Since being with Swindon, Massey has had loan spells with Hungerford Town and Wantage Town.

An earlier new recruit for the Lambs was Sean Thomson.

The 26-year-old frontman joined from Toolstation Western League Premier Division side Millbrook where he had been for some time.
