Manager Comments
Pretty good start to the season with only one defeat and 4 straight wins on the trot giving my side 2nd spot in the table. I haven’t had to make many changes to the side so my transfer kitty is still pretty much full in case I need it. Experience a good derby day victory in the league cup which has given the fans more reason to support my running of the club and the board are very encouraged with the start I’ve made and I plan on building upon the good start.
