Bruce Elliott echoed his manager's thoughts but also had a few words for Paul. "Everyone knows how much energy Paul has and without his vision and drive we would not have got to this point. Like everyone else I can't wait to see the new surface. I'd also commend Bobby Childs, who only took up his position a few weeks ago but is working flat-out to ensure the success of this project."
Staying on the 3G theme, the U’s have been invited to be one of four clubs to compete in a veterans’ tournament at Maidstone United on Saturday 27th June. Each game will last for 25 minutes. The U’s squad will be managed by Micky Joyce. The aim of the day, other than showcasing 3G, will be to have fun and so the sides will feature a wide range of “mature” ages rather than just nippy 35 year-olds ! Supporters will be very welcome.
