Welcome everyone to our fi rst home game at the start of another football season. After last season’s stirling efforts we fi nd ourselves in Northern Region Football League (NRFL) division 1, which is not bad considering it meant 2011 we achieved two promotions in the course of a season to get here. Now our task is to stay here. Management We started with a good performance last week at Committee Manurewa. While we didn’t get a result it was good to see the new faces settle in well and a couple of youngsters Patron make the most of their chance in the side. We now have Jack Poole to do it again this week and also look to get those fi rst three points on the board. President Welcome to Fabio and his Onehunga Mangere team. We Dwayne Barlow know very little about you guys and, judging by the team Vice-President sheet, it appears you’ve had quite a turnover of players Peter Challis during the off-season. Our two clubs have played each other four times in the Northern League, with the best Treasurer match being played at the Domain in 1998. We led 1-0 Dave Mann at the break then a crazy 2nd half saw eight goals go in, Secretary giving us a 6-3 victory. Let’s hope we see plenty of goals Julie Clothier today as well. We’ve had issues with our playing surface over the Club Captain summer, so today is the fi rst time we’ve been able to use Chris Bedford the Domain. Thanks to Mal, Julie and Bryan at the council Junior for getting the pitch into a playable condition. Co-ordinator I’d like to make a special welcome to our sponsors. Malcolm Raynel Hopefully the weather has been kind to us today so that we can crank the barbie up and down a few cold ones. Junior The club is extremely appreciative of the support we Convenor receive from a good number of local fi rms and people. Kim Hancock Without this help we’d have no chance of competing in NRFL division 1, which is the second highest winter league in the country. I hope we’ll see you all again at the Domain many more times this season. Dwayne Barlow
