FortrARS

Chris Tardif was quoted in the Press today saying that the poor starts seen at home in the last couple of seasons is something that needs to change 'because we need to be in the mix from the very start'.

He went on to say 'we need to first and foremost make ourselves difficult to beat but also make the most of the vast attacking flair we have to mean that teams are worried about coming to Guernsey to face us'.

The first team to visit is Carshalton tomorrow and they have good cause to be a little concerned. Having been well beaten by Dorking Wanderers on Saturday they expect to have 7 first team regulars missing when they make the trip tomorrow.

Somewhat refreshingly their manager Matt Howard told the Sutton Guardian 'it is what it is'. In other words defeat tomorrow won't seal their fate, a point that some other clubs would do well to take note of. Rest assured they will do everything they can to get something out of the game.

For our part we need to make a statement that Footes Lane will be a fortress this season.

Here are the results from the Isthmian South tonight:-

Chatham 1 South Park 2 ; Chipstead 1 Three Bridges 1 ; Dorking W 2 Peacehaven 2 ; Hythe 0 Herne Bay 2 ; Molesey 4 Walton Cas 1 ; Ramsgate 1 Faversham 0 ; Sittingbourne 1 Hastings 3 ; Tooting & Mitcham 0 Corinthian Cas 3 ; Whitstable 0 Folkestone Inv 1 ; Whyteleafe 0 East Grinstead 1.

Get down the Lane tomorrow and play your part in building the FortrARS.

Keep it Green

Allez les Verts!!
