Well, my first league game of the season came and went on Saturday 20th August, with the home side winning 2-1. Although, there were four friendlies prior to this, plus a training session under the previous manager that I wasn’t told about until I had just spent three hours working on the pitch.

Yet again, here we are in the middle of a long dry spell that hopefully will come to an end very soon. I suspect that a lot of people reading this will feel the same, especially if you have inadequate irrigation at your disposal as I do. I would even suggest that there are some out there who have none whatsoever. I am the only one at my club who is praying for rain!!
