Further to what has been said elsewhere on the forum the next 2 weeks are pretty crucial for the club for the coming season and will show us potentially what we can achieve this year.
The trophy game is huge for us - consider the fact if we get through we could be drawn away at a conference side, a team 3 divisions above us. Regardless of the clubs history such opportunities don’t come along that often now and we need to be up for the cup on Saturday!
The following week gives us the opportunity to show we are serious title contenders if we can get a result against the league leaders. Whilst titles arent won in November wouldnt it be nice to be going into December sat on top of the table?
If you are bothered in the club progressing then please get yourself down to Wincham Park over the next 2 weekends. Yes we could use the money thats without saying but a good turnout would also give much needed support the team.
Lets not have any daft excuses - we have the facilitys if it rains, the games have been scheduled for a few weeks, its not xmas shopping time yet - get yourself down to Wincham Park.
Spoken like true Wittoners! Come on, lets be havin you!!!
Before the two games Neil refers to there is also a little match tonight too. I think we owe Market Drayton one for the result at their place. These cup competitions are valuable at the moment as they provide us with additional revenue opportunities. With a few new players signed on and few familiar faces in need of a game it gives the manager a chance to rotate the team a little.
Well said Neil.
I know of one Wittoner coming up from Bedfordshire for the Trophy game.
Let’s get behind Gary and the Lads, the more the merrier!
Up The Albion
Saturdays game is massive and the chance of playing the likes of luton,oxford,york or chester in the next round is mouth watering, not gonna be easy tho by any means as matlock seem to have found fantastic form at the wrong time for us im sure however if the fans turn up and get behind the lads and the team play like we know they can then its gonna be a close match and hopefuly a witton victory!!
Following saturday is just as big and another good turn out is needed, i believe vs fa cup match is on itv at 12:30 and wondered if were gonna open the club early so we can watch lincoln beat vS then celebrate with a victory over sheffield?
Just think…Luton at Wincham Park would be just great, but a win on Saturday and anyone in the next round would do very nicely, I’m sure we are more than capable of seeing Matlock off, after all they are just a small town near Buxton COME ON ALBIOOOOON!!!
Personally I would prefer Luton away, as that is a local game for me.
However, we need to focus on beating Matlock at home, for which I will be there, coming home from Bedfordshire, so no excuses for anyone living in and around Northwich if they don’t show up for this massive game!
Luton away would be great for us all im sure we could fill a bus or 2 for that one! for me tho i would love york away as ive been there with huddersfield and had a great day out but first we need to do the job on saturday, its nice to dream but i believe we are in for a very tough time on saturday, matlock beat the league leaders 5-0 last week and have won their last few matches so we must be at our best to have any chance
im sure however if the fans turn up and get behind the lads and the team play like we know they can then its gonna be a close match and hopefuly a witton victory!!
