Colledge demands Horden improve on dismal display
Horden CW assistant manager Andy Colledge wants an improved performance from his side as they prepare to travel to Boldon CA on Saturday.
Horden travel to The Villa on the back of a run of just one win in their last four games following Tuesday night’s 3-0 home defeat against Chester-le-Street Town.
Saturday’s game against their former Wearside League rivals is unlikely to provide any relief with their hosts targeting sixth consecutive league win.
Ahead of the game, Colledge said: “Tuesday night’s performance against Chester-le-Street was unacceptable.
“It was, by far, the worst performance of the season and we will be expecting far better at Boldon on Saturday.”
