PLYMOUTH PARKWAY | HALL ON THE MARK

There was another impressive strike from Callum Hall at the weekend

Callum Hall was able to add to his ever-growing collection of impressive goals at the weekend with an absolute screamer to give Plymouth Parkway the lead against Swindon Supermarine.

The Pitching In Southern League Premier South outfit went on to lose this one 3-2, but in recent weeks Hall has grabbed winning goals against Basingstoke Town and Havant & Waterlooville.

“It’s always nice to score, but it’s even sweeter when it’s a banger,” admitted Hall, who has already won our Goal of the Week accolade this season. “Whilst I was buzzing with the goal on Saturday from outside the area, ultimately we weren’t able to take any points from the game, which was disappointing.

“It’s been a tough first half of the season for everyone involved here; there have been a lot of changes in and around the club, which haven’t helped matters, but there have also been some positive signs too.

“Being such a young team has brought its own challenges but then you look at some of our recent results, such as beating Havant & Waterlooville and putting six past Gloucester City, and there are definitely some foundations on which we can build upon over the second half of the season.

“I am happy with the number of goals that I have been able to contribute. I am on seven at the moment, so the next target is to get into double figures and then get as many as I can beyond that to help lift the team out of the relegation zone.

“It’s a very even League this season. There’s only Merthyr Town that I’ve felt are a class above so far, every other team is capable of beating each other on their day.

“We know that as a group we have to start turning performances from games such as last Saturday, where we took the lead twice, into points. If you can’t win then you have to make sure that you don’t lose and by doing that we can keep adding to our points tally in order to work our way up the table.

“There’s an opportunity for us to bounce back straight away at home on Tuesday evening against Bracknell Town and then a big game at Marlow coming up at the weekend, so those six points on offer could make a big difference.”

As it stands, the Devon club sit just inside the bottom four with 24 points from their 24 League games.
