Witton begin their Pre Season programme on Tuesday night when they welcome League Two side Crewe Alexandra to Wincham Park. Unusually, Albion only have two home fixtures this time round during pre season compared to previous years. Although our visitors have two fixtures running simultaneously, we can expect a strong Crewe line-up of professionals and trialists whilst Witton have kept around half or just over half of laat season’s squad and at this stage added a couple of new faces to date. There may well be a number of trialists also hoping to impress the management team ahead of the new season. Crewe’s pre season programme has already begun in earnest so they have a head start on the Witton team in terms of minutes on the pitch but, Albion will be looking forward to competing against a strong professional outfit but results are not important at this stage although it’s always nice beating higher opposition in any game. Pre Season has seen some high profile members of the team move on but that’s football and these things happen. We can’t afford to dwell on these things, new players arrive at the club and it is there that we must focus our attention and give them our support. Witton face a tough test against Crewe and will be giving the best in order to get a result to kick start their programme. Kick off at Wincham Park is 7.45pm.
