Well deserved win by the lads, Town offered very little to be honest and we dominated even with fringe players in the team, pitch was pretty poor very long grass and really bobbly the ball could not run without jumping around ! makes you realise what a facility we have. It would be Hard to criticise the performance on that pitch so just accept the win and move on plus we now have Prince back for selection UTA

Thanks for the updates Wheels. Very much appreciated.
Good to have any win but a potential banana skin avoided and possible increased gate money as we hopefully progress. Always had a soft spot for the old CSC dating back to the Gresty Rd days. Hopefully we can have a decent run, but not at the expense of a decent FAT performance Saturday!

UTA!
