Moneys need to be pitch perfect

Manager Dave Carter feels his side face a big challenge adapting to the 4G playing surface.

He said: '˜Playing on the artificial surface will make things more difficult for us.

'˜I am not a great fan of 4G pitches. It gives the teams playing on it regularly a huge advantage.

'˜The bounce and the run of the ball is different so we will have to adapt very quickly.

'˜We have not even had a chance to train on a similar surface.

'˜After losing two games in the league already though I see this as a must win for us.'

Carter is boosted by the return of experienced pair Lewis Fennemore and Brett Poate.

Fennemore is captain and defender Poate possesses a wealth of experience.

They can be key players in Moneyfields bid to get back onto a winning track.

'˜Having two big leaders back in our side will make a difference,' added Carter.

Curtis De Costa and Louie Martin are both ruled out by injury.

'˜We have not been playing badly. Against Winchester it was just the final pass and a few individual errors that let us down.

'˜Failing to take our chances when we were on top cost us.'

Carter is pleased that new striker Felipe Barcelos and returnee Dan Wooden have got a game under their belt.

He feels they will be better for the experience.
