Rothbury v. Blyth FC
Team Valley Carpets Northern Football Alliance Division Two
Saturday 27th April 2019, Armstrong Park,
Rothbury, kick-off 2.30pm
MATCH SPONSOR: NEWCASTLE HOUSE HOTEL, ROTHBURY
Rothbury aren’t underestimating the size of the task ahead
as Blyth make the trip to Coquetdale for a head-to-head encounter.
The Cowpen Park side inflicted the Red’s only League defeat
so far on the opening day of the season and will be eager to bounce back after
a mid-week defeat put a dent in their title hopes.
Boss Dan Herron is keenly aware that Blyth will be smarting
and is hopeful that his own side have learned lessons after being severely
tested by Seaton Sluice last weekend.
“It’s just like any other game really -
obviously the lads will be looking to play positively and try to get a result.
We’ve trained well this week and are looking to take that
sharpness into Saturday’s game,” he said.
The importance of the vocal support from
the sidelines has played a huge part in the Red’s phenomenal unbeaten run this
season and Herron reiterated that the players get a huge boost from the fans.
He’s hoping to see a bumper turn out again this
weekend with the stakes being so huge. They don’t come much bigger than promotion
and, possibly, without jumping the gun, extending the lead at the top to an
unassailable level.
The supporters could really prove to be the
twelfth man on Saturday in a game that you don’t want to miss. Your encouragement could make all the
difference.
