Season 54 preview June 2023
COV lasted 1 season in Div 1 and now turn to experienced hands of Richard Burnett to lead COV back up.
Richard has been boss of Nairn previously for 13 seasons (S10-22), so lets hope its lucky for COV now.
COV strong all over the pitch, but a little light on squad players.
GK will need a refresh next season, and adding a SW and younger FW perhaps the short term aims.
Ive fair landed on my feet with this squad, instant contenders for the div2 title
so no pressure!
Richards Season 54 Objectives:
1 - get settled back into SESL
2 - try to shape the team in my way, particularly spreading out the ages of the squad
3 - promotion
4 - cup run, say quarters of at least 1 cup
Season 60
Josh Fitzgerald head hunted from INV to COV September 2025.
Won a title few seasons ago with FC Blades in sister-league-SANC.
Got promoted 2 seasons in a row in SESL but not so well the last few seasons but re-build for a promotion was tricky?
Was introduced to the game by my Dad who manages at ANN
and play for Tikton Jaguars Sunday league under 18 (we won the league last season and are now in Div 1 so looking forward to that)
Real-life supporter of Sheffield Utd.
In my spare time I enjoy fishing and football and hanging out with mates/Xbox.
