The Evening Advertiser, Monday 26th September 1949

For their 2-1 victory over Welton Rovers, their Western League opponents, Wootton Bassett were greatly indebted to the opportunism of Pearce, who, as a left winger, at one time assisted Swindon Town. He put his side on the victory path with a goal from a corner after 20 minutes and also scored their second after the interval.
