Thanks to the 3G pitch at Silver Jubilee Park yesterday, Gary McCann was able to pitch his side against Hemel Hempstead Town of the Vanarama Conference South last night in a hastily arranged training match. Both sides played without a number of regulars, taking advantage of the occasion to provide match practice to a number of their squads.

Hemel were able to take advantage of poor defending to go into half time 2-0 ahead, while a more even second half saw 2 more from the visitors matched by a penalty from Sam Murphy and another goal from Leon Smith.

Full details will appear on the Fixtures page soon.
