Cambrian & Clydach League Prog's edition

Good evening and welcome to the officials, players and supporters of Cambrian and Clydach Boys Club to the Marston’s Stadium for this evening’s MacWhirter Welsh League Division One match.

I’d also like to welcome the three officials, Garwyn Davies in the middle with Nigel Howes and Derek Williams assisting.  We hope you have a good game and we’ll see you in the club afterwards.

Tonight is another vital league match.  Our opponents appointed former Ton Pentre favourite Richard Haig as manager early in the season and they haven't been out of the top half of the league all season therefore I'm anticipating another tough game.

Tuesday evening saw us climb into second position after a 4-0 home win against Pontypridd.  Goals from Kieran Howells, Corey Thomas, Ian Jones and a penalty from goalkeeper Leon Cosker gained us a comfortable victory.  Once again a number of missed chances went begging which needs addressing very soon.  The central defence pairing of Shaun Morgan and Daniel Williams seems to be blossoming at the moment with yet another clean sheet on Tuesday.  Young Corey Thomas had a fine game in midfield with his enthusiasm and awareness rubbing off on more senior players.

Shaun Best is unavailable tonight because of work commitments whilst Steve Parry returns after missing the Pontypridd match.  Dan McGrath is still a couple of weeks away from full fitness after pulling his hamstring a month ago.

The players have put the club in a great position at present and hopefully our excellent run will continue tonight against determined opponents.  The players realise that they are now at the business end of the season and cool heads with 100% commitment is the name of the day.  Hopefully we can keep playing well and keep creating chances which I'm sure will be taken.

Enjoy the game

Craig
