...gaffer pleased to have secured replacement for Lewis Morgan.

Ever present, and popular goalkeeper Lewis Morgan's injury last month and the result of not being available for the remainder of the season was a bitter blow to a team used to his experienced presence.
However, it was due to some luck, but in the end a lot of hard work for the gaffer Barry Tucker to find a suitable, but capable replacement for the important No.1 jersey.
Highly rated Callum Maher has always had ability but his progression at Brockenhurst has given him more experience at a higher level.
His debut in the 1-0 Home win against AFC Stourvale on 22nd January secured 3 precious points in a difficult game.
Last week-end's 1-0 defeat away at Cobham against a well organised Talbot Pub was another close match.
He was called upon to make several fine saves that gave the team hopes of gaining something from the effort.
Injuries, suspension's and unavailability of important player's has put pressure on sustaining the League challenge of late.
The next match on Sunday away to Rockbourne will not be easy, but what is when the prize is your 1st League title.
