It should be an entertaining match this afternoon at the Wessex as in form Kidderminster meet Weymouth in the Blue Square Premier.

The Terras will be buoyed by their recent result and performance against Burton last weekend. Up against it with injuries and away from home, they battled to a one all draw. 

The last home match was a desperately poor 2-5 defeat to Histon and it will be a performance that manager John Hollins will be looking for some better defending from his players. 

There are, not for the first time, plenty of other rumours and pieces of speculation surrounding the club yet again, but after having my say in yesterdays blog about how things are panning out for Weymouth FC I am choosing to keep my counsel today. Please do keep your emails coming in though. I do read thm all and the worrying thing for me is that a lot of the content is consistent in what it is saying. 

Enjoy the match. 

Briefest of the brief TerrasBlog today.

Had loads to do after training before I could sit down and watch some sport. Even now the Tour of Britain cycling is playing in the background and I want to get back to it. 

Nothing more to add to the Terras draw with Burton yesterday. It was an important result and you have to say that after four matches without a win now, three points is a necessity to get things fully back on track in the next match. 

In fact two home matches in quick succession will be another barometer of where our true abilities will be placed come May. More on the Kidderminster and Crawley matches to come during the week of course. 

There is going to be some midweek football for your correspondent as Yaxley take on Needham Market in an FA Cup replay. CuckoosBlog is going quite well, so I have no issue in giving it a plug on here!!!

Give it a click and keep up to date with the blue and black army! 

I suppose it is a reminder of how far Weymouth Football Club has come in the last few seasons that they have no need to worry anymore about these early stages of the FA Cup. It is remarkably exciting though isn't it? No-one with a Terras persuation needs any reminders of the brilliant experience playing Nottingham Forest was and I hope that we can be that non-league club (and there is always one every season) who takes a big scalp and comes to the nations attention. 

Anyway good luck to the Cuckoos on Tuesday night, let's hope they can keep their run going and you never know. Another couple of rounds and the Terras could be visiting Huntindgonshire. 

...or holiday in Weymouth.

I am just about over the performance against Histon last weekend. Seriously I am going to stay away having seen only one Terras win in about three seasons now. 

Saturday evening was rescued somewhat by bumping into JHMBE and Alan Lewer in a restaurant car park. I was amazed that they had heard of TerrasBlog!!! but despite my best efforts to get a quote and new strapline for the site from JHMBE, this was the best I could do.

"John, I am James from TerrasBlog. Do you read the site at all?"

"Sorry, no."

So there you have it, officially John Hollins doesn't read TerrasBlog. 

I left him in the door way answering questions from a fan who had travelled down from Doncaster for the match, but did have a proper little chat in the bar. It was very pleasant and I have to say we have a very charismatic manager in JHMBE. Now piss off Woking and find someone else you want to court for your manager. 

Thankfully there was no-midweek action as I wouldn't have been able to face it, so painful was my Saturday Wessex Experience. It was nice to spend some time back in Weymouth fishing and relaxing, I hope it wont be too long before I make it back for another match. 

On to today and a point against a strong Burton Albion side at the Pirelli Stadium. I must admit I wasn't expecting too much from this one, but in typical Weymouth style we managed to defy the odds and get a point from a match we weren't likely to get anything from. 

In other good news, despite not having received anything from the club as yet there are two prizes in my house for the "Beat the Blogger" competition. 

Two England replica football shirts to celebrate Anton Robinson's call up to England C. One of them (the home one) is marked up with Robinson 8 on the back. I will get a picture uploaded onto the site in the next few days, but you only have until the end of September to send in your photos (of you in an exotic location in a Weymouth shirt or with some merchandise) to have a chance of winning. 

Please send your entries by email to jimmythecuckoo@hotmail.com

Right back to the unpacking...
