Three for Five-Star Tivvy

Writer: Simon EllisSimon Ellis

TIVVY's interim management team of Asa Hall and Niall Thompson inspired Yellows to only their third win of the Pitching In Southern League Premier Division South season and a second successive match unbeaten since they took over from Leigh Robinson.


A week after the exciting 3-3 home draw with Sholing, Tivvy again rang in a triple, beating Poole Town 3-1 thanks to goals from Joe Parker, the recalled Tor Swann, and Javan Wright.


The victory took Town out of the relegation zone and club captain Niall, who did not play because of injury, said: "Brilliant game, brilliant performance. The boys just battled and played some unbelievable football on a tough pitch. Couldn't be prouder of them. We've just come together; they've come to training on Tuesday and built what we did on Tuesday into today. Took everything on board.


Asa, who controlled the game from midfield and was named player of the match, agreed. "Couldn't ask for any more," he said. "Obviously last week was a difficult week so we had to galvanise the team and put an effort in. We could have got something [more] out of last week, but this week we've worked hard and the boys have really turned up.

"Everything we could have asked for. They've worked hard; they've outbattled; they've outran; they've kept the ball. We've played exciting football and we could have scored more goals, so really proud of them and I think we fully deserve that."


Focus off the field now turns to the appointment of a permanent successor to Leigh.


Niall said: "Obviously, we don't know what's going to happen in the week or next couple of weeks. But the boys have got to take confidence in that [result]. We showed that we can compete. We showed against a lot of teams that we can compete this year."


Asa said: "We set some standards and I think that's got to be the minimum now that we ask from them. Whoever's in charge or whatever happens at the club, everyone has to buy into it. And, hopefully this is the start of a good run."
