Tillson and Wannell go on Loan to Chippenham

Chippenham Town have brought in defenders  Jordan Tillson, 19, and Jacob Wannell, 18, on an initial one-month loan deals from Exeter City.

Tillson featured in the FA Cup game for Gloucester City against the Bluebirds whilst on loan there. Wannell spent a period on loan at Dorchester Town this season.

Chippenham Town boss Nathan Rudge speaking to This Is Wiltshire said

Jordan’s played against us at right-back for Gloucester and he’s a versatile player who can play there, in the centre and in the middle of midfield.

Jacob was man-of-the-match for Exeter’s reserves against Swansea the other day and they’re raving about him down there – he’s a left-back and they think that he’ll be the next one to break into their first team.

But because they’re going for automatic promotion this year, they’re more likely to go with the experienced guys and the young lads get less of a chance.

We’ve got them for a month to start with but if they like it with us and we like them, then we could end up having them for the rest of the season.

Chippenham, are 16th in the Evo-Stik League Southern Premier Division, and travel to 20th-placed Bedworth United. Both players are expected to feature.
