The Wellmen’s League campaign continues on Wednesday evening with the visit of Gresford Athletic to Halkyn Road.
Hot on the heels of Saturday’s convincing win, the Wellmen will be looking to make it 2 wins in two matches with the visit of 2nd from bottom Gresford Athletic.
Goals from Matty Harvey, Steve Lewis and a first competitive goal for the club by Darren Gowans saw the Wellmen run out 3-1 winners on Saturday, and Manager John Haseldin will be hoping for the same on Wednesday evening. After Saturday’s game, Haseldin said, “Today was a really good team performance and important 3 points for us. We played some good stuff and worked hard for each other and hoefully we will be able to continue that on Wednesday.”
Missing from the line up on Saturday were Mark Winslade and Sam Jones but both are hoping to return to the squad for the midweek game. Steve Lewis will be looking to continue his goal scoring form upfront and will be hoping to add to his goal tally.
Gresford Athletic didn’t have a game on Saturday so they will be fresh and looking to kickstart their season which has been disappointing compared to last season’s campaign. In the five games that they have played this season has seen them win the once and lost the other 4. The only victory coming in their last game when then beat FC Queens Park 3-2. One familiar face for the Wellmen supporters in Gresford’s line up will goalkeeper Mike Platt, who had a successful couple of years at Halkyn Road a few seasons ago.
Wednesday night’s match kicks off at 7.30pm and hopefully we will have a good turnout of supporters cheering us on to another victory.
