Weavers Hopes His Harrogate Side Have Made A Statement

That is according to manager Simon Weaver, who thinks wins at Yeovil on Saturday and at leaders FC Halifax are proving the club now mean business.

After a slow start they have come alive and Town now sit in eighth thanks to four wins in their last five matches.

In-form Harrogate have climbed to eighth and haven’t lost in seven.

“We came into the lions’ den and we put in a performance full of passion,” he told the club’s media channel after the 2-1 win at Huish Park.

“We were lacking last season against the top teams and that makes it all the more pleasing.

“The fitness levels have been immense since pre-season and it allows us to press like we did for the second goal. We were aggressive.

“I hope we have shown that we can go anywhere and perform.

“It’s a nice little run we’re on now and hopefully that gives us the belief that we can go forward. It’s four wins and three draws now - it should give us the confidence to keep growing in stature and getting better.”
