I would like to wish all of their officials, players and supporters, as well as the match officials, a warm welcome to Petersfield. Another Wednesday night and another match to contend with. It seems that the flow of home matches just will not come to an end for us. We have one tonight and then another one on Wednesday next week. At least we get a Saturday off at the weekend when we travel to Aylesbury United. It s not that we aren t grateful for all of these home matches as they help to swell the coffers with the revenue which keeps on coming in. But it does put considerable strain on our resources and our volunteers so I would like to say a big thank you to all of the club s helpers for their considerable hard work in keeping up with all of the matches in the last few weeks. One question I have been asked is why do we charge normal admission prices for cup matches like the Portsmouth Senior Cup. The simple answer is that whatever the match we play our costs remain the same. We still have to pay the match officials and we still have to pay the same utility bills while the stadium facilities are in use. We have also invested considerable sums of money in the stadium facilities new stands and floodlight fittings do not come cheap and we are still having to pay off the costs of having these. We do realise that the number of home games we have had puts considerable strain on your financial resources too and we regularly review our admission pricing policies. But we have to meet the increasing costs of football whatever competition we are playing in. Enjoy the game and come on you Rams!!!

What a fantastic feeling it was to get a league win against St Ives Town on Saturday. We had gone on a run of five consecutive defeats so it was important to break that as quickly as possible. I was very pleased with our performance, especially against a side who were second in the table before the game. It proved once again what we have all been saying this season we are more than good enough to compete at this level and once we can get into the habit of winning matches we will be able to climb the table. We have a lot of hard work ahead of us to ensure we stay clear of the relegation zone. Let s be clear about this, making sure we are still a Southern League club next season is our number one priority. The aim every season is to get 40 points on the board as quickly as possible as this is usually enough points to stay up with. Anything after that we view as a bonus. So if we hit our points target early then we can push on and set ourselves a new target to try and reach. I think we all consider that we are able to finish in the top half of the table and the more optimistic among us probably feel a play-off place could be achieved. But let s not get ahead of ourselves here. The first thing is to get that winning habit and move ourselves into a comfortable position in the league table and then go on from there. Tonight gives us another short rest from league action with another tie in the Portsmouth Senior Cup. As we have stated previously we are taking this competition very seriously this season and we will be doing everything we can to try and win it. We may decide to shuffle the squad around a little bit but this is essentially a first team game so we will be putting out a strong side to try and win the game. We are hoping that our keeper Matt Shortt might be able to make his comeback from injury this evening. Shortty has been out since the opening day of the season with an ankle injury but he is fit enough to start playing again now and he needs minutes out on the pitch. However, Anthony Ender has been in fantastic form since he came to the club and I m sure he doesn t want to just hand his shirt over to Matt so there will be plenty of competition for the goalkeeper position in the coming weeks. It s good to see Shortty back fit as that means pretty much everyone in the squad is fit at the moment. Please get behind the lads in the usual way this evening. Enjoy the game tonight. Ammo 8 5
