The official matchday programme is now online for today’s Isuzu FA Vase Second Round Proper tie against Great Yarmouth Town at the CMG Stadium. Gates open at 2pm and kick-off is at 3pm.

Reaching this round is already the furthest Rangers have ever gone in the FA Vase, and we’d love a big crowd behind the team this afternoon.

Remembering Justin

This issue opens with a tribute to Justin Atherley, our first-team masseur. His sudden death has devastated everyone connected with the club. Justin was always positive, energetic and happy, and he made a real difference to everyone around him. Our thoughts remain with his family, friends and loved ones. Rest in peace, Justin. You will always be part of the Rangers family.

Inside this issue

• Manager’s notes: Gary Meakin looks back on last Saturday’s 2–0 win at Biggleswade United. He also covers Monday’s 2–1 cup win over Kings Langley, where Josh Williams scored a stoppage-time winner and the players who stepped up from our Under-23s impressed.
• Director of Football: Mark Eaton previews today’s tie and explains why the Vase means so much to clubs at our level.
• Meet the opposition: Great Yarmouth Town were founded in 1897 and play in the Eastern Counties League Premier Division. Their grandstand at the Wellesley Recreation Ground opened in 1892 and is believed to be the oldest football stand in the world still in regular use. They have won 8 of their 17 games so far this season.
• The FA Vase explained: the route from August’s first qualifying round to the final at Wembley on 16 May.
• Also inside: the squad and backroom team, news of the Spartan South Midlands League’s new title sponsor Stanno, and thanks to our sponsors and our official charity partners, The Children’s Memorial Garden & Food Bank.
