Wednesday we had the training ground to ourselves as the pros were given a day off after their efforts against Scunthorpe. The under 16s were in and they did weights with Geoff before we did. We did bench pressing and I was very sore afterwards! In the afternoon we all went out and did a finishing session with Jamie and Trigger which was really good. It was chucking it down though so very difficult conditions for me. I was caked in mud after the session but it was great! The reserves were in action at night so we had to go to the ground to do our duties. They beat Bury 3-1 with goals from Lewis Neal and two for Neil Mellor.
Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud
