Robins ready for home debut

10:56am Thursday 9th August 2007

IT'S all change for Dudley Town as they prepare to kick-off their West Midlands Premier campaign at a new ground and with a new manager.

The Robins will welcome Ellesmere Rangers to the Dell Stadium in Brierley Hill, on Saturday (3pm kick off) after moving from Stourbridge's War Memorial Ground.

Since finishing fifth last campaign Town have also seen Mark Kavanagh leave with his assistant Dean Whitehouse moving in to the managerial hot seat.

The new manager has seen key players Ross Brown and Wayne Laurie both move on but he's still hopeful the club will be able to emulate last season's achievements of a top five finish and two cup final appearance's.

Whitehouse said: "Despite the lack of budget our ambition for this season is a top five finish and to win a cup because we have been able to keep the nucleus of last season's squad.

"We have moved closer to Dudley so it would be great to see more people come through the gates to support us."
