Hey everyone,

Last weekend was a good one for us getting the win which we did against Peterborough.

After a tough weekend with Leeds/Sheffield we challenged the team to bounce back last weekend, especially after the game with Milton Keynes had been postponed.

We had two really good practices which enabled us to focus on our own game whilst preparing for the one game against the Phantoms. It gave us time together and I think that was a good thing.

I was really pleased to see Tomasz, Balint and Eddie get their first competitive goals of the season as well. They’re all crucial players for our team and I really hope their goals on Saturday will give them big confidence boosts.

Looking ahead to this weekend, a triple header is not going to be easy!

Playing Thursday night is going to be hard especially with it being on the road, but we have to be ready. To make progress in the Autumn Cup we realistically need to win all three games and we can only do that by taking it one game at a time.

Basingstoke away is one of the toughest places in the league to go and play and on Saturday, having already played twice, we’ll be taking on a Raiders team who will be desperate to bounce back after conceding 10 against Leeds last Sunday.

This weekend, more than ever, we’ll need your full support on Saturday!

Enjoy the game,

Aaron
