We're Not Used To Play Two Games in Three Days says Long


Alvechurch currently lead the Midland Football League Premier, being 5 points clear at the summit. Manager Ian Long says his side is facing a 'season defining week in title race', but Hereford have 2 games in hand.

'Church now have three home games in a row, culminating in a top of the table clash with the Bulls on Easter Monday. Tomorrow night they host Rocester, before Heanor Town are the visitors on Saturday.

Ian Long at Edgar Street in January - the game ended 1-1

"We've got a huge game against Hereford but we must also focus on Heanor and Rocester as well," Long to the Redditch Advertiser.

"Rocester are probably the league's form team and Heanor have got a good away record, so neither of them are going to be easy.

"We're not used to playing two games in three days.

"We'll probably go to a hotel or gym on the Sunday to do a proper warm down and make sure we're ready for the Hereford clash."
      
Tickets for the Easter Monday clash go on sale at Edgar Street tomorrow, with long commenting: "Hereford have got 900 tickets but that means we've got 600 to sell and we're hoping for a big crowd to come down and support us.

"We're nowhere near as big a club as Hereford but we've been getting decent crowds for us and hopefully we'll got a few more."
