Bognor Get New Tennants As Rebels Move In

31 Aug 2017 By Sam Elliott

Bognor Regis Town will have temporary tenants, it has been confirmed.

Worthing, of the Bostik League Premier Division, are to move in to Nyewood Lane for at least one match.

This is because the Rebels are trying to get to the bottom of their problems with the club's 3G pitch. They will play games at Vanarama National League South Bognor until it is resolved.

It has been confirmed their scheduled match with Margate next month is the first game to be held there.

Bognor, meanwhile, have announced the signing of Maidenhead striker Chinedu McKenzie on a one month loan.

Worthing Managing Director Calvin Buckland said: “I fully appreciate the fans frustration at the perceived lack of information from the club regarding the venue for upcoming home fixtures, however it isn’t a case of keeping information from anyone, it is purely down to a lack of anything concrete from those now in control of the situation.

"During all of this the best case scenario for the club has always been for temporary work to be carried out on the pitch allowing us to return to Woodside Road for the remainder of the season.

"This still may be the case however yesterday we received confirmation that it wouldn’t happen in time for our fixture with Margate.

"We should receive further clarification next week and be able to provide an update for future home fixtures then."
