Bards return after break with a point to prove

STRATFORD Town manager Gavin Hurren is urging his players to right a few wrongs when they take on fellow Southern League Premier Central play-off hopefuls Halesowen Town on Saturday.

The Bards were below par when losing 2-0 in the Black Country back in September and Hurren admits that hurt the players.

He said: “We underachieved when we played over there, we weren’t at the races. You have to give the opposition credit and Halesowen were the better side on the day.
