On Saturday at Moneyfields the first team got the reward of 3 points that they have been unlucky not to achieve on another couple of occasions this season. Those performances have been mixed with one or two rather strange ones - so the aim is to build on the confidence that the midweek cup win and Saturday's league victory has brought.
The Firsts management team of Steve, Clive and Kevin have had to juggle with their resources in the light of injuries and unavailability. It is a credit to the organisation and development of the Reserves that switching both up and down between the sides has been taken on board by the players involved. Inevitably both teams are having to make late adjustments to their sides while they would prefer more consistency. It is a measure of the progress the club is making if we can all cope with such situations.
The Reserves are putting on some fine displays and picking up points along the learning curve. They are a young squad with great spirit and while there has to be movement of players between the two sides we are looking to hold together the nucleus of the Reserves to give them time to grow as a group - in preparation for the Wessex Premier!
Much cheer
Mr Chairman
