He's not lying.

Travellers Friend were due to play Shalbourne last Sunday but there was a problem with the pitch so they had no game. That means this week is obviously their first game of the season, meaning they will be fired up, but might also be a bit nervous. Take from that what you will, but I take it to mean that we just need to play to our strengths. From watching one of their games they seem quite committed and keen, but I guess we just have to treat them like every other team in our division the first time we play them - as an unknown quantity. All we know is what we're capable of so just keep feeding Dave and Neil up front and keep breaking up the opposition's flow. That's what we do. Bring anyone on. Except maybe Hermitage again.
