Basingstoke Town v Woking
Pre-season friendly
2pm on Saturday 2 August 2014

Garry Hill’s side travel to Basingstoke on Saturday afternoon (NB 2pm kick-off) for their penultimate pre-season friendly. It’s free admission for all, so why not trundle down to The Camrose to enjoy the fare?

WOKING

Cards fans will be hoping to get their first glimpse of James Clarke on Saturday. The central defender, signed from Salisbury City, has missed the pre-season so far with an injury but it’s hoped that he will be fit enough to play a part in this game.

The Cards have lost their last two friendlies against League opposition but showed enough in the first half against Crawley Town on Wednesday night to suggest that there is reason to be hopeful about the season ahead, especially if some more fizz can be provided up front.

BASINGSTOKE TOWN

Basingstoke have had an encouraging set of results in pre-season, with three wins and four draws so far:

Winchester City 2 Basingstoke Town 2
Basingstoke Town 1 Yeovil Town 1
Basingstoke Town 1 Reading XI 0
Hungerford Town 1 Basingstoke Town 3
Basingstoke Town 1 Newport County 1
Swindon Supermarine 2 Basingstoke Town 2
Fleet Town 1 Basingstoke Town 4

The Town squad includes ex-Cards Liam Enver-Marum, Manny Williams and Jay Gasson. New signings include strikers Julian Owusu, Lloyd Macklin and Sam Argent and winger Chris Flood from Winchester City.

Basingstoke finished in 14th place in the Conference South last season and open their new campaign with a home game on 9 August against promoted Hemel Hempstead Town.

The first home game is on Tuesday 12 August when Dartford are the visitors. It’s not too late to grab a season ticket if you haven’t already got one.

Come on, you Cards!
