Fillery set for YM debut

31 January 2008

HORSHAM YMCA manager John Suter admits he would be delighted to take six points from two tough games in three days. Suter's men travel to fellow relegation strugglers Whitstable today - and then league leaders Dover Athletic on Monday evening. YM lie three points behind Whitstable with a game in hand in the Ryman Division 1 South table, so the importance of the fixture is not lost on Suter, who may throw new signing Ben Fillery into the side. Suter said: "Whitstable is s six pointer, and that is a very big game in tersm of the mini league of four we are in - we finish first or second in the group and we are not relegated. "It's a big couple of games - they are both hard matches in their own right, and the geography makes it even more difficult." Phil Fitzgerald will not be available for Monday's match, and neither will striker Matt Russell - both due to work commitments. "We lost 5-0 at Dover last year," Suter commented. "So if I get six points from these two games I wil be well pleased." Fillery played for YM reserves against Tonbridge Angels on Tuesday, after signing from Three Bridges. Suter added: "He looked a little rusty, but hasn't played since October - it's quite possible I will put him in on Saturday."
