Burgess Hill Town head coach Simon Wormull sets his players a challenge for Merstham and Leatherhead
The Hillians were without a midweek game this week and face Merstham at home and Leatherhead away this Saturday and next Wednesday respectively.
New head coach Simon Wormull said: “We are preparing for Merstham which is quite nice because we have come out of a lot games in the past six or seven weeks and with a small squad, we have really pushed them.

Wormull has told his players what the expectations are for these two games, and that they already owe him a point for not reaching the target in the past two games.He said: “Those two games [Merstham and Leatherhead], we are looking to go and win.
“We have identified what points we want. Taking it back to last week where we won at Margate then lost to Kingstonian, my forecast to the players was four points from the two games.“So what I said to them Saturday was ‘you owe me a point’.
