Klar for cupkamp

Til helgen skal Bolton Wanderers women ut i Alliance Design & Print Cup mot Tranmere Rovers women

Boltons damer er så lang suverene i sin divisjon North West Womens Regional League, Division One North.

Motstander i helgens cupkamp fra Tranmere som spiller i North West Womens Regional League, Premier. Det vil si ett hakk over i nivåsystemet enn damene fra Bolton.

Treneren til Bolton, Myles Smith, sier at de er klar for kampen selv om det har vært en ukes tid uten kamp for hans lag. For sist helgs cupkamp ble avlyst.

– It was unfortunate that the game was called off but given the short turnaround, we reacted in the best way we could. We got the players in and put some good work in on the training pitch. We got that physical stimulus that we would have missed with having no game, and even managed to look at a few things as well – so full credit goes to the players and staff for reacting in such short notice and getting the work done, forteller Smith til bwfc.co.uk.

Treneren er klar på hvordan de skal møte Tranmere i kampen som spilles på hjemmebane søndag 27. oktober med kampstart klokken 15 norsk tid. Selv om de tapte mot samme lag i Adobe FA Cup i september.

-We will approach it as we do any other game. We have our identity and our way of playing that we may tweak for the opposition that come up against, but we want to win the game. 

Myles Smith er også svært fornøyd med supporterne.

– We’ve had unbelievable support so far this season, with 500 fans already turning up to home games – so here’s hoping we can replicate, if not better, that turnout in what is set to be a tough but exciting game.
