Today: Season 22/23 was a particu arly difficult one for the club.
Despite reaching the play-off's at the end of the previous campaign most of the
squad decided to play their foot ball elsewhere!
That and the late appointment of the new management team of Ray John ston,
Elliot Gibbons and Ian Lanning had to start the season with a makeshift eleven,
however, hard work and team spirit saw the side stay competi tive throughout the
campaign.
Scroll on a year and after a positive summer the same management team and
supporters are optimistic that this season will see us battling at the right end of the
table!
After winning the league last season the reserves will be led this year by Anthony
Morrison, Taylor Morrison & Rob Johnson following the resigna tion of Liam Watson.
Our very successful under 18's will once again be in the very capable hands of Ian
Lanning and Jamie Pur nell.
