WHILE EASTLEIGH proved a trifle too strong for our very young travelling squad in the UK on Saturday, the focus switches to the Track and tomorrow evening’s Rawlinson Cup semi against the Rec.
Our boss is able to name a strong squad which sees the return of Jacques Isabelle and Sam Green, both of whom missed the win over North.
Nick Trebert, a casualty against North, misses out on this occasion.
The squad is:
Shane Billien
Matt Solway
Seb Sheppard
Tom Solway
George Goubert
Zac Batiste
Lewis Battle
Steve Renouf
Sam Heathcote
Sam Green
Ricky Renouf
Jack Smith
Jacques Cauvin
Jacques Isabelle
Harry Tester
Ivan Fossey
As for Eastleigh, it proved a very tough game against classy opposition.
‘Lots learned’ said Chris Tardif of a game in which we fielded close to an entire U18 side but found ourselves outgunned.
Afterwards, the squad watched an FA Cup tie between Stoneham against Moneyfields at the excellent Stoneham Lane complex.
