After two impressive home wins on the bounce, we’re back on the road making the shortish journey round the M25 to Borehamwood to play Boreham Wood F.C.
Luke Garrard’s side currently sit a point and a couple of places below us in the league. They had been on an indifferent run of form with only one win in seven league games before Tuesday night when they came from behind to win at Daggers 3-1.
Diminutive Portuguese midfielder Érico Sousa seemed to be the catalyst for Tuesday’s win, creating one and scoring one of their goals and seems to be a player to watch.
The Wood, who share their stadium with Arsenal ladies and youth teams, play on a hybrid pitch as described by @Smiffy below ( http://www.shrimperzone.com/forums/...-28th-october-15-00-ko-nl.116685/post-2686846 ) - hopefully a more natural surface than the 5g pitches at Dorking and Bromley where we lost earlier this season.
Subject to any injuries not known about at the time of writing, it would seem that we’ll probably field an unchanged side with National League embargo rules still hampering Kev’s ability to shuffle the pack or to name returning injured players, such as captain Nathan Ralph, when the players registered to replace them are in the squad. Mystery still surrounds the non appearance of Dan Mooney who left the field at Yeovil with a stomach upset and hasn’t been in a squad since. Hopefully it’s only a few more games until the takeover is completed, Ron’s historic debts paid off by the consortium and we can start to operate like a normal football club again.
In the meantime who would you choose to start on Saturday and what do you predict the result will be?
