Nigel's Notes

Back at Maes Tegid again for our 8th Home League match of the season and its only mid October. After this evening we only have 3 more Home League fixtures until the 2nd phase begins in February 2025. There is quite clearly a serious inbalance in fixture planning and it will result in a difficult period for the Club with a depleted revenue stream for 4 months. We return here after a very disappointing Friday evening match against an excellent Haverfordwest side. Not only did we lose competitiveness in the second half but we suffered another hugely serious setback with a horrific injury to Christian Norton. We all wish Christian the speediest of recoveries and hope that his long stay in hospital will be over soon. He has faced 2 operations and will face a long period of rehabilitation before being able to get back on the football field. This was the second serious injury to have affected us in the last 2 weeks. Alex Downes is now recovering from a very serious knee injury which will see him sidelined for many months.

The Club are certainly not having the rub of the green with their injury list this season and we have yet to have any week where less than 5 players are under treatment and unavailable for selection. That however is football and we all have to take up the challenge to ensure that we remain a serious challenge for honours again this season.

We continue to work tirelessly to achieve the standards which we all have become accustomed to and we once again face fierce competition from tonight’s visitors to Maes Tegid. Our close rivals for many years will again ensure that we must be at our very best if we are to secure the invaluable points on offer and as always we await a tough test of our resource from Connah’s Quay this evening. It will be an exciting and entertaining match.

Thanks to everyone for their attendance this evening. Enjoy the match.

Diolch. Nigel.
