Dear All

I have recently been appointed the Inter League Manager for The Cheshire League, so thought I'd take the opportunity to introduce myself to all of our associated clubs.

I am the manager of Tarporley Vics F.C and have been for over 12 years. It was with great pride and a real sense of honour I accepted the role of Inter League manager when offered by the Leagues committee.

Our overall aim is to win the 'National League Systems' Cup in 2011, before we get to that stage, it is my job to compile the best available squad that will put us in a position to achieve exactly that. The Cheshire League won the competition in 2004 and aspire to repeat that tremendous feat once again. To enable me to lead that charge, I have compiled a scouting team, headed up by my assistant, Mike Alcock (Formerly assistant manager at both Middlewich Town & more recently Winsford Utd), who will endeavour to get around the grounds on match day and draw up a dossier of potential players, that firstly we can review and then pull in for squad get togethers, trials and a number of friendly games with other related League sides.

Through the course of 2010 we will begin and finally compile a squad capable of winning the NLS Cup in 2011. Obviously, this will be a great challenge for myself, my staff, the League committee and indeed the eventually selected players, but we all need to remember, we have achieved this before and firmly believe we will achieve it again.

To assist us in scouting, I would greatly appreciate the Managers of all clubs, feedback on players they believe are at the right level and would embrace the challenges that lie ahead for us, these can be players from within your own clubs, or indeed players of opposition teams who have caught the eye during match day. This will allow me to direct my scouting team toward the right players at the right games.

It is my aim to compile the very best available players as I have already said, that means from any of our 3 Divisions, this squad is not a closed shop, I don't care what League they play in, for what team, I just want to be able to select the very best squad I can, with the right balance and a winning attitude in it.

The over riding and key objective is to select the very best for OUR League side. As and when WE achieve, it will be WE who have made this happen, this is OUR League team and your input will be both greatly accepted and appreciated.

I have listed my contact details below, can I ask that all Secretaries and Chairman who I have not been able to contact your Managers through E-Mail, please either forward on, or print off and give to them at the very earliest opportunity.

The profile of the League side will be very much lifted in the early stages of the New Year, the scouting teams will begin to watch players from the first weekend in January. To represent this side as a player, or to contribute through opinion as a Manager, needs to be felt as a great honour to all involved, mirror imaging the pride I hold as the new Manager of the side.

I will be giving this role 110% and am both highly driven and fully focused on bringing that Cup back home.

I hope you all have a great Christmas and wish you all a Happy New Year. Thank you in advance in supporting me fully in this challenging new venture.

Kind Regards.
