Bognor Regis Town set for pre-season opener at home of FA Vase finalists
Robbie Blake takes the Rocks into their first pre-season friendly tonight - away to treble winners Littlehampton Town.
Blake believes the Rocks squad will come together over the next few weeks with the Nyewood Lane chief admitting he needs one or two new players to add strength to the group.
Blake and assistant manager Jamie Howell once again put the troops through their paces last Friday at East Dean FC in readiness for the first friendly of the summer at Littlehampton on Monday evening (July 11).
Joining the squad at training on Wednesday were the returning James Crane, Charlie Bell and Ethan Robb as well as a few potential signings looking to impress Blake and get a deal.
And Blake said: "We're definitely getting there in terms of building the squad and hope to be announcing a few more signings very soon, which I think we need. The lads have worked incredibly hard in training and they have shown a great desire and attitude which has been impressive.
"Littlehampton will be a good test for us -- they had an incredible season and for them to get to the FA Vase final was a massive achievement. They are a club on the up and they will wan t to give us a game so we are looking forward to that challenge."
