Today we extend a warm Paycare Ground welcome to the players,<br />
supporters and officials of <strong>Wem</strong> <strong>Town</strong>. Win lose or draw the players and<br />
officials will be most welcome to join us for our award winning hospitality.<br />
You may have noticed a pretty significant change at the Ground since our<br />
game against Shifnal just two weeks ago today. Yes- I am delighted to<br />
confirm that the work on the floodlights is now complete. I must<br />
congratulate the contractors Sports Ground Development Ltd and<br />
Advanced Electrical Ltd who worked tremendously hard through heavy rain<br />
and winds to get the job done. Garry and I stood at the Darlaston Ladies<br />
game last Sunday in glorious sunshine admiring the fantastic facility The<br />
Paycare Ground has become. We were both tremendously proud of all of<br />
the committee, players, management, supporters and sponsors who have<br />
been part of our journey. Unbelievably it is less than 5 years since we took<br />
on the running of The Pavilion which was run down and was open grass<br />
land when we took it on. Our progress has been brilliant and we are all<br />
pinching ourselves at what we have achieved.<br />
Well if we didnʼt know it before we now know just how good and tough the<br />
Premier Division is and how big a step up it is from Division One. After a<br />
fabulous opening day outing to Pershore <strong>Town</strong> where we fully deserved an<br />
excellent point we were brought down to earth by Shifnal <strong>Town</strong>. Last<br />
Saturday at Smethwick Rangers we were not at our best but managed a<br />
decent draw.<br />
