Callum Waters caught up with Chris Herbert following appointment as first team manager.
Joint manager Mark Jones hopes his 74 side will put much needed points on the board this weekend, as the greens face both Newcastle Town and Witton Albion in an Easter weekend double header.
Interim manager Matt Woolley expects a tough task this weekend against an in form Trafford side, who in recent weeks have pulled themselves away from the relegation zone.
Ahead of Saturday’s crunch mate with Hednesford Town, caretaker manager Mark Jones has urged the fans to get behind his side.
Ahead of the match against Leek Town this weekend, joint manager Matt Woolley is hoping for his ’74 side to impose themselves against the league leaders.
Despite the defeat against City of Liverpool last weekend, Mark Jones has heaped praise on the players and hopes that the team will kick on and collect the three points at Vauxhall Motors this weekend.
Caretaker manager Matt Woolley is challenging his squad to “stand up and fight”, starting with this weekends game against City of Liverpool.
1874 are looking to respond after a 4-0 defeat to Trafford last weekend, and Woolley is demanding a high intensity and work ethic from his players on Saturday.
“It was a disappointing result (Trafford) , no hiding from that. We knew it was a game we had to perform in.”
“2 weeks ago we played Mossley. We were together, committed and everyone gave 100% – as a 74 fan that has to be the minimum you expect to see and we will make sure that’s the case come 3pm on Saturday.”
City of Liverpool visit Townfield this weekend and sit in 13th place ahead of kick off. Having already faced CoL twice this season, Woolley knows it will be a tough fixture for the Greens.
“They (CoL) are a very good side. I expect them to be hard working and committed, with some real attacking threat.”
“It will be important we look to make life difficult for them but at the same time using our strengths to cause them problems.”
“We are all aware its been a challenging season but its not over! It is in these situations you see who stands up and is willing to fight and see the true character of an individual.”
Ahead of kick off on Saturday, Woolley finally issued a rallying cry to the supporters
“The club needs everyone associated now more than ever pulling in the same direction; Supporting one another & getting behind the lads on the pitch. They will be giving 100% come Saturday on it and we need you to do the same on the terraces!”
