THE GNP SPORTS BOSS SHAMIR ALAM COMMENTS ON HIS TEAM'S 2-5 WIN AT HAMPTON...

Another win. How satisfied with the GNP performance were you?

"I’m pleased with the win, I’m pleased with the second-half performance but we just need to fix a few aspects of our game if we are to have a successful October!" 

How would you assess Hampton’s efforts on the day?

"Some good players and two well taken goals; their league position doesn’t really show how good they can be. We have them at home in the league in a few weeks, so I’m hoping we can shut them out!" 

What disappointed you most about your team’s display?

"Tactically we’re not making the right decisions in key moments of the game; the work rate there, the fight for the club is there, the quality is there but our decision making isn’t and that’s a problem with all the players. We will try and fix that in training but the players have to learn from their mistakes if they are to have a long run of games in the team." 

HENDRIE...

Your M.O.M?

"Tommy Rawlings: everyone in the club knows what Tommy is going through currently and he’s a fantastic lad and really is the heart of our team. 11 goals already and he’s missed 5 games this season. He’s in great form and his partnership with Stuart Hendrie has seen them only play 4 games together and as a partnership, they have scored 11 goals. They really are the MFL's most in-form partnership." 

RAWLINGS (9)...

Next up? And what are your thoughts about that match? 

"Quarter-final versus Bolehall Swifts; we are away from home which makes it tough and we are facing a team that will fight to be in the semi-final and a team that’s recently beaten Copsewood at home! I expect us to go there, be professional and fight to get into our first semi-final!" 

Yours in football...
