TIM NIELD - Position Defender/ Midfielder

Tim is the perfect player for any amateur local football club, he is a Robin through and through and has been playing at Greenaway Lane all his career.

Mr consistent and loyalty spring to mind !

Tim is 28 years old and has a long time girlfriend called Gemma, he has lived all his life in Exmouth and is a school teacher at Brixington Primary School, Exmouth.

Tim started playing for Budleigh when he was 16 years old representing the u17 side, he progressed to the second team and made his debut in1997.   Tim progressed into the first team in 2004 - 05, Julian Phillips and Kevin Smith's first season.  He has been ever-present in the side since.

Having watched Tim in the second team the season before Kevin proclaimed to the Budleigh faithful Tim shall play in the first team after we were installed as manager's.

His nickname is 'Ronseal'.  This is self-explanatory " it does what it says on the tin"

Tim is certainly an asset to Budleigh Salterton Football Club, he is a dream to manage, you can give him any job to do on the football pitch and he just gets on without any fuss.
