Hereford's Squad To Visit Wembley Before Trophy Final

 

Hereford FC manager Josh Gowling has said that he plans to take his squad to Wembley before the FA Trophy final on May 22nd.

His idea is that on the day of the game the squad can concentrate on the game as opposed to the occasion.

Gowling has also spoken about how he will prepare the squad for the big day.

"What we are going to do is train a bit different.

"Because it's been an up and down season we will give the lads a period which will be down time, not concentrating on the game.

"Then in a week or two weeks we'll be kicking in, focus minds on the 22nd, training properly and making sure we get those fitness levels up.

"We've already spoken about Wembley. One it's about the occasion and second it's about the game.

"First and foremost we have to deal with the occasion. Once you've dealt with the occasion that's out of the window and we can go into the game like any other game.

"We'll go to the stadium the week before just to have a look around so the lads can see it.

"The worst thing is turning up there, it's a massive stadium, what is this.

"So we'll get that out of the way and then we can focus on the game.

"So when we turn up on the 22nd we're  not playing at Wembley anymore, we're just playing another game, trying to keep our unbeaten record going."
