Taunton Town head to Raymond McEnhill Stadium this Saturday to face Salisbury FC.
Up for the Cup
After Last weeks away loss, the team look to rebuild their away form. The Game takes place in the FA Cup qualification round where they face a step up in the football division, National League South side Salisbury. After a convincing 4-0 win against Step 5 side Millbrook Early on in September, the Peacocks will want to carry on the momentum into this game.
However, Gosport followed through with a late finish to increase their lead 3-1. In a game that could have gone either way, there were positive signs from the performance as outlined from Head of Football, Lloyd Irish:
“We head to Salisbury on Saturday knowing this will be a difficult task. They’re flying in the National League South and had another great result away at Truro on Tuesday night, so they’ll be confident going into Saturday’s game.
“We have plenty to be confident about at the moment, though. We’ve scored 24 goals in our last seven games and know that, on our day, we can cause problems for most teams. We have a number of players who, in my opinion, could play at the level above, and Saturday is a great opportunity for them to show that. Ultimately, that’s the level we want to get this football club back to as quickly as possible, so Saturday is a good chance to see where we need to be.
“It’s a free swing for us in some respects, which can help, but we fully understand the task ahead of us. For a successful cup run, you often need to cause a few upsets along the way, so that’s the aim on Saturday.
“We’re really looking forward to the challenge, and we hope to see and hear as many Peacocks there as possible. Your support is greatly appreciated.”
The Opposition
The Hosts nicknamed the “The Whites” currently sit 4th on the National league south Table, one point behind KSI’s and Andy Carroll’s Dagenham and Redbridge. Having not lost a game since August, and back of a 360mile round trip win to Truro City, they carry a strong momentum going into Saturday.
