Quakers looking for first league win of the season

Preview of Quakers' home game with Kidderminster

We're looking for our first league victory of the season when Kidderminster visit Blackwell Meadows on Saturday.

After beating Prescot Cables on penalties last Saturday in the FA Cup, we were much improved on Tuesday night at Fylde, but were unfortunate to be beaten 1-0.

Nevertheless, manager Alun Armstrong and his assistant Darren Holloway were very encouraged by the energetic display, as Daz explained afterwards:

Team news: Striker Jamie Holmes and midfielder David Atkinson are both out, while forwards Adam Campbell and Dan Maguire will both have fitness tests. Luke Charman should be ok.

There are two new signings: Levi Amantchi and Theo Hudson -- Alun talks about them in this interview
