3 games, 3 outcomes: a win, a draw and a loss. It\u2019s not the start that Manager, Stephen Howson and Director of Football, Bill Prendergast would have wanted but failings obtain value. In his post-match interview after Paddock\u2019s 4-0 loss to Haydock, Bill valuably highlighted that \u201cthe lessons learnt from these 3 games have been [spreading his arms wide] that much.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The beauty of football is that when things go wrong, there\u2019s always an opportunity around the corner to put things right. With Howson being \u201cpleased with attitude in training\u201d, a week of reflection and regrouping is what Paddock will be hoping puts them in good stead going into this weekend\u2019s fixture against Newton-Le-Willows.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Omar Sinclair<\/u><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This weekend, Omar Sinclair returns to the Stretford Paddock side to play his first game of the season. Paddock\u2019s solid option at the back, Will Hobson, is unavailable this weekend so Omar\u2019s return to the squad could not have happened at a better time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Omar Sinclair has had an impressive career thus far. He played for Paddock last season but did so off the back of playing college and club football out in The States. In 2018, Omar played for Detroit City in the second tier of the US Soccer pyramid. He\u2019s back at Paddock to work with Bill and reignite his footballing career.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Omar\u2019s return has reminded Ste of the benefit Stretford Paddock FC has regarding contacts and links to other clubs. \u201cBeing able to develop players and then move them onto bigger clubs is the best recruitment strategy I have,\u201d Ste explained. \u201cOmar should maybe be playing at a higher level, but we can help him get there\u201d.<\/p>\n

Other Team News<\/u><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is plenty of team news this week but it\u2019s a mixed bag. Starting with the positives, this week will see the return of central midfielders Dom Molloy and Kayode Adewale. Paddock\u2019s midfield severely lacked physicality against Haydock and there\u2019s no doubt that Molloy and Kayode\u2019s return immediately fixes this problem.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s Dom\u2019s brother Kieron however, where the concerns lie. Kieron sustained a foot injury after last week\u2019s fixture and the state of his foot has not improved throughout the week. Kieron is one of Paddock\u2019s key attacking outlets and therefore everyone at the club is hoping for a swift recovery and return to the side.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Newton-Le-Willows<\/u><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Newton-Le-Willows are Paddock\u2019s opponents on Saturday. The side finished 7th<\/sup> in Cheshire League Division 2 last season and will therefore know what to expect going into this season. Currently sitting in 6th<\/sup> place, Newton-Le-Willows have started this season with 2 wins against FC St Helens and Ashton Town as well as a 2-1 loss to title contenders, Bollington Town.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is no doubt that Paddock will be in for another tough game on Saturday but Molloy and Adewale should massively aid the team against another experienced side. An area of opportunity for Stretford Paddock may be exploiting the Newton-Le-Willows defence. They have conceded 8 goals in their opening 3 fixtures. The likes of Joao de Andrade, Nosa Iyamu and Ronaldo Brown know that they can be deadly in the final third.<\/p>\n
