THE VISIT of League One side Brentford on Saturday not only gives Angels fans their first glimpse of the new-look team that Tommy Warrilow has put together, but also the chance to welcome back former player Leon Legge to the Longmead.

Legge left the club last season for the south London side and after making his debut against Norwich in a Football League Trophy tie in September 2009, made 29 appearances for the Bees, also scoring two goals.

He brings his Brentford side to the Longmead tomorrow in the first game of Angels's pre-season preparations and it will be interesting to see which personnel and formation Warrilow decides to choose.

Chairman Steve Churcher is looking forward to welcoming back Legge and to the match.

"Funnily enough, the first conversation I had with Tommy as chairman was the selling of Leggy to Brentford," Churcher said. "We all followed his progress and are chuffed at how he has done. You only have to look at how highly Brentford rate him – he signed a contract extension tying him to Griffin Park until 2011 – to see how well he has done and long may it continue.

"It will be nice to get things going again and Brentford will be bringing down a strong side, so it will be a good test for the squad. The main thing I will be looking for on Saturday is for the new players to begin to mould together as a team. Their quality is undoubted and it will be interesting to see how they play together.

"The signing on Saturday (Lewis Taylor), along with the others, shows we can attract the sort of player to Tonbridge that is of the highest quality. I am really excited about the squad and we have had a busy summer down at the ground, carrying out improvements and hopefully there will be a big crowd for Saturday's match."

Warrilow will be without Lewis Taylor, who is still recovering from injury, Lee Worgan (holiday) and Meshach Nugent (work commitments), but everyone else will be available.

"I spoke to Leggy last week, he was on a training camp in Spain or the Algarve, and he said they are fresh and buzzing," Warrilow said. "It should be an excellent test for my squad and the most important thing is to make everyone welcome on Saturday and create a good atmosphere

"It will take a few games for us to find our rhythm, you will see flashes of what we will be about I am sure, but this is our first pre-season game.

"It will be nice for him to come back to us, but, I know this might sound a bit harsh, he won't want to come back to non-league grounds that regularly anymore. He has his foot in the door and now it is up to him to force it wide open, but he certainly won't forget where he came from. I am just so pleased for how it has gone for him."

Get down to the Longmead tomorrow (Saturday), at 3pm to see how the new look Angels fare against Legge's Bees.

The draw for the FA Cup and FA Trophy were made and Angels landed two home ties. In the first qualifying round of the FA Cup, to be played on September 11, Angels will play the winner of Egham Town/Guildford City or Cove/Three Bridges. Bit simpler for the FA Trophy, Concord Rangers will visit the Longmead on October 16.
