After a very successful pre season period, we now find ourselves at the threshold of our first competitive game. Only after Saturday's game will we truly know where we stand. Saturday's opponents are from the same level as us, London 2 SW, where they finished, as us, 6th last season. So on paper, at least, two evenly matched clubs. However, stats can be misleading. Having lost just 5 games at home in three seasons, and those to the promoted teams, we must take confidence in our reputation that we are a club that is difficult to beat at 'Fortress Drill Field '. We welcome Weybridge Vandals for their first visit, and hope that they enjoy their afternoon with us.
