BIG MATCH PREVIEW

CRAY VALLEY (PM) v LANCING
18th DEC 2021
PITCHING IN ISTHMIAN LEAGUE – SOUTH EAST DIVISION

League newcomers Lancing visit The Artic Stadium on Saturday in the midst of a battle for survival in their first season at Step 4, after their last nine games have yielded just three draws.
Recipients of advancement under the FA “Non-League Pyramid restructure” in the summer, The Lancers were “promoted” from the Southern Combination Premier Division having won six of their eleven league matches in the curtailed 2020/21 season.
After starting the season under the joint player/managership of Kane Louis and James Rhodes, a poor start to the season saw Alex Walsh join Louis in late September – Rhodes returning to a playing role.
The change appeared to have an immediate impact – Lancing gaining their only away win of the season at Whitehawk before beating Sevenoaks Town at Culver Road – but despite tightening up at the back, a profligate strikeforce has found the target just 13 times in 17 league matches - Matt Daniel leading the individual scoring charts with five.
.
With only one win in the last four league games, Valley manager Kevin Watson will hope the table toppers have a larger squad to select from, after a depleted line-up performed heroically to maintain an unbeaten league run of 12 matches at Whitehawk last week.

And a message from the Club if you’re attending The Artic Stadium this weekend ;-
“This coming Saturday, we are asking for your help !
We will be collecting for the Greenwich Food Bank and kindly ask that, if you’re coming along to The Artic Stadium for the visit of Lancing FC, please bring along a donation to make sure no-one in the local community goes hungry.
Thank You !
