Brown Struggles To Find Logic In Fixture List

Last updated : 06 July 2006 By Stray Shots Team
Terry Brown has told the Aldershot News that he is fairly happy with this season fixture list - although he can't understand how they are worked out.

Speaking to the paper he said, “We only have four games in February but then eight in March, how do they work that out?" he said. "It's not rocket science — surely the fixtures can be split evenly?

“Gravesend will be a test for us first up and Weymouth away after that couldn't be much harder. It will probably be in front of about 6,000 fans and it'll be a very tough fixture.”

Brown admitted that Saturday's home match against QPR was a week earlier that he would have liked but conceded that, like any club, he is dictated by finances.

“I am trying to get through pre-season without any major injuries and I'll be taking the games very gingerly,” he said.

“The first team are only likely to get 45 minutes each on Saturday and while I want the players to get some match time and a feel for the team, I don't want to pick up any injuries. However, we're all looking forward to a good game against QPR.

With thanks to the Aldershot News.
