Away-day challenge
9:02am Friday 2nd May 2008
PORTLAND Red Triangle will be looking to record their first away victory for three years when they travel to Pennys Lane tomorrow (2pm).
The islanders will be without skipper Martin Hewson and experienced duo Gary Randell and Jason Styles but with new signings Laurie West and Sammi Rathnayke both available, confidence is still high ahead of their Dorset Funeral Plan League Division Three opener.
Player-secretary Grant Neven said: "Gary and Jason are unavailable due to work commitments and they have said they will play when they can, if selected of course.
"Dan Strong and Callum Laws have retained their places after good perfor-mances in the friendly against Broadstone last week and we are pleased to see the youngsters still coming through."
Triangle suffered relegation last season from Division Two and are hoping for an immediate return.
Portland: Barrett, Dixon, Rathnayke, Neven, Smart, Strong, D Males, West, Laws, Riley, Morris.
*Portland Seconds take on Cranborne Seconds at Reforne tomorrow in Division Six.
Portland Seconds: Tombs, Quayle, Lamming, Stewkesbury, S Males, M Males, Whisker, Suggs, Locke, Samuals.
