MINEHEAD play the first of seven successive away matches when they meet Imperial in the first division of the Uhlsport Somerset County Football League on Saturday, August 31.

"I don't think it is right to have so many games away but there's nothing we can do about it," said Minehead boss Caig Carr. "It is what it is; we have to deal with it."

Minehead were without a game last weekend and Carr decided to give his players 'a weekend's break.'

They will field a strong squad to play Imperial although they will be without last season's top scorer Guy Burns, who is injured, striker Leon Lofts and attacking midfielder Matty Trump.

Meanwhile Watchet Town, who have lost their last two matches 2-0 in the Premier Division, will have skipper Eben Harding back in the squad to play away to Worle. However, Billy Jones, last season's top scorer, is unavailable.

"The last two games have been very much the same - we obviously need to score goals," said Nick Sully. " You don't win games without scoring. We also need to cut out mistakes.

"We need to get some points to boost confidence. We don't want to fall too far behind the pack."
