One To Watch

AFC Totton’s Star man, Charlie Austin, needs no introduction scoring 34 Premier League goals in 111 Premier League games for Burnley, QPR, and Southampton. Austin joined AFC Totton in August 2024, after leaving Swindon Town at the end of the 2023/24 season.


Minutes Applause – Stephen Morris

Ahead of kick off, there will be a minute’s applause held as we remember Martyrs fan, Stephen Morris, who sadly passed away since our last home fixture. Stephen was a Martyrs fan that followed the team home and away, as well as a big community figure who raised thousands of pounds for local charities. Our thoughts are with Stephen’s family and friends at this very difficult time.


Mascots & Flag Bearers

We welcome the children from Heolgerrig Red Lion U9s who are our match-day mascots for Saturday’s game and will be leading the Martyrs out at Penydarren Park ahead of the game.
