PHASE TWO RETURNS TO

PHASE TWO RETURNS TO DEESIDE

Friday evening sees The Nomads first home game of Phase Two of the JD Cymru Premier as we welcome Caernarfon Town to Deeside Stadium.

The Nomads come into the game following a great opening weekend in the second phase with a 1-0 victory over Barry Town United thanks to Michael Wilde’s seventh goal in four games, while Caernarfon fell to a 2-1 defeat at home to Bala, who came from behind thanks to two Chris Venables goals to take all three points at The Oval.

The last time Caernarfon came to Deeside Stadium was back in mid-October in a game which saw The Nomads go 10 games unbeaten in the league after a convincing 4-2 victory. Goals from Michael Wilde, Decalen Pool and a brace from Jamie Insall cancelled out strikes from Jamie Breese and Danny Brookwell in either half.

Ahead of the game, Andy Morrison said “I was at the game (Caernarfon vs Bala) - a very strange game - 50-60mph wind and both teams seemed to play better against the wind than actually with it - they’ll be disappointed because at 1-0 they had two or three chances to get the second and then the way the game was it would have been dead, but Bala stayed alive and got back into the game so I know they’ll be disappointed because I think a draw would have been a fair result so they’ll be coming here slightly wounded and wanting to put that right.

We’ve got a terrific record at home - if you look back over the last year, I think it might be one defeat in a year so we’ve been very good, we’re in a rich vein of form and we’re playing really well at the moment and in all areas of the game, asking questions in all different areas - if we maintain the standards we’ve set over the last couple of months where we’ve kind of raised the bar a little bit and we can keep producing the opportunities to score goals, it’ll take a good team to beat us.”
