McGann ready for key Games

Welton goalkeeper Phil Mcgann believes his side will take some stopping if they can emerge unscathed from the next two months.
The Socialites face a stern test this weekend in a must win game against FSC Victory that could either push Welton right back into the title race or eliminate them from it all together.

January appears even more imposing with the County Cup quarter final against a strong Magnet Tavern – and a Ron Eaglen Cup trip to Ivy Tavern.

McGann said: "We have done well after a slow start but the season is long.

"Now we have a massive game this weekend against Victory.

"I have said before the next two months will be important months.

"It is important in these months that we don't have players injured.

"If we don't have players injured I think we are strong enough to progress in both Cups and hopefully we will still be in with a chance in the League."

Welton’s only defeat this season was against Victory and McGann expects his team matesto rise to the challenge this weekend.

He said: "I think it is good to play this game, it is an important game against a top team.

"But if we want to win at the Cowpaddle against Victory we must play a strong game.

"I think we should do well like when we played against Ivy a couple of Weeks ago.

"Victory are a fantastic team. They have important players and are experienced."
