Terras huff n puff

By David Simpson

Hard earn't three points

WEYMOUTH assistant manager Paul Maitland said he was pleased with the ‘huff and puff’ win against Biggleswade Town in the Evo-Stik Southern Premier Division.

The victory was the Terras’ third successive 2-0 win at home in the league and they have now lost just one of their past five games in all competitions.

Maitland said: “It was quite an untypical Weymouth performance in that it was a lot of huff and puff.”

The goals came from a superb curling effort from Josh Wakefield in the 33rd minute and a volley from Harry Baker in the 67th minute.

Acknowledging their good form Maitland said: “It was really important that we are now starting to string those results together at home and make this a bit of a fortress.”

Maitland summed up the match by saying: “At the end of the day the most important thing is that we’ve picked up three points. We move into the next game, no fresh injuries with players coming back.”

Maitland is looking at the game in the wider context however, saying: “That said there is still a lot of work to do. There’s a lot of improvements to make. We know that we may well have won today but it’s all about the process and it’s all about taking another step forward.

“If I’m honest and I think we will probably look back on this at the end of the season, as you do any game that you win, and think well that was a better result then perhaps it may look right now.”
