good end to end game today at foster park as selwyn played a weakened coastal spirit squad. All a good learning process for the young Selwyn lads. Ft 4-3
Good game for the neutrals with the game going end to end. Things to work on for either side, but both have a few players to come back. Selwyn missing about 5 1st team players. Especially pleased for the 4 u17 players who didn't look too out of place.
Hows the squad shaping up mate? Any new additions following promotion? Any other news of transfer talk etc
I think the general consensus is that we should have stayed in the CCL to get players transferring to us with all this talk of those sides pushing hard to get the talent.
We haven't changed too much at all since last year (and the year before). To be honest, I'm the wrong person to ask in terms of transfers. I turn up to do my job and if there is a new face I say hi and go from there. A couple of young guys, but not sure of their transfer status so I will find out maybe a day or so before the Mainland website, but that is all.
If we had gone up a couple of years ago, then we would have needed quite a few more players, but the young ones who have been at the club are now that much older, that much stronger, and have had the consistent message for the past few years. The friendlies building up to the season will give them an eye-opener to what big-person football is about. And we will find out a lot about them in the process
