The 24-year-old has found the net 19 times so far this season as the National League South side’s top scorer.
Against Chelmsford, he volleyed in to put Weston in front midway through the second half, before firing in from close range.
“My phone hasn’t stopped since that day I don’t think,” he added.
“When I’m shopping and people say I’ve seen your goal on the TV it’s a nice feeling.”
Britton signed with Bristol City as a teenager in 2019, going on to score on his debut for the club in 2021 against Brentford.
But a year later he was released and had spells at non-league clubs like Cork City, Yeovil, Maldon and Tiptree before finding a home at Weston last spring.
Like many of his team-mates he juggles his football career with full-time work, spending his days alongside his dad Geoff as a painter and decorator.
Days before travelling to Grimsby, Louis Britton is finishing a full refurbishment on a house as well as spending evening time as a children’s football coach.
“Luckily when I got released from Bristol City I had this [painting] to drop back to, my plan B, so I’m thankful for that,” he said.
“It’s pretty flexible, that’s one of the main reasons why I do it. Being a part-time footballer you need to be quite flexible especially when you’ve got a game away to Grimsby on a Friday and I need a day off.”
