STEVE McKIMM Good afternoon and welcome to the Halcyon two up front we may have been taken Wealth Longmead Stadium for a game apart. They hadn’t won three out of three where the opponents demonstrate the for no reason, they were a good side. We standard in our new league. We welcome needed a point minimum and we weren’t Havant and Waterlooville, especially their going to give up a point by going gung-ho, manager Paul Doswell. but the the quality with the ball into the box and Jack’s diving header, that was very Dos and I go back years, we hope he enjoys pleasing and there were a lot of positives to his visit here, and we wish him, his team come from the game. and their supporters a pleasant stay and a safe trip back tonight. Then at Bath it was an exciting game which had everything. They should have We will have to be at our best throughout had a player sent off in a case of mistaken the game today, most of Havant and identity, I don’t know what their penalty Waterlooville’s side were playing National was for, thankfully they put it over the bar, League football last season, but it’s not and Bath could have had another penalty a challenge that scares or intimidates us, when it hit Rian on the hand, but the game otherwise there would be no point turning was anything but boring. Myles pulled off up this afternoon. In fact we’re relishing some good saves, particularly first half, he’s it. This is the sort of game we have been really improving by the game. looking forward to since we won promotion on that memorable day against Met Police. That’s two clean sheets on the spin, and on No disrespect to the teams in the Bostik another day perhaps one of those chances league but we’d much rather be playing we had could have gone in and we could Havant, or going to places like Bath in front have got the win. I didn’t get carried away of 800 people than someone in the league when we lost the first three and I won’t get below. carried away now but what I do see is a group of players growing in confidence and We’re the underdogs at every game we go stature. to, we’ve been written off, we’ve all seen the predictions. Teams won’t take us lightly I’ve got a few players out at other clubs on but they will expect to beat us, we are the dual registration which is important for their unknown and unfancied team in this league, development. Liam Smith is playing Bostik but particularly in the last week we’ve been Premier Division football at Merstham and showing how well we can perform at this Josh Stirman is at East Grinstead in Bostik level. It’s a tough weekend with Welling South East.
