“Starting Saturday we have seven games in 20 days and a insane schedule until Christmas”. You need to sign contracts, agree with different clubs and a lot of competitors want to sign players too. “We’re very pleased for him”. “Our power is our facilities, the way we play”.
We hope to kick on now like we did a year ago, get some wins and go from there.

“This season I’ve been told about the new directives and I should have known better but emotion gets the better of you sometimes and that’s why I reacted”. “It’s a very good group, players who connect with each other, staff who connect with the players”.
