Back to ‘bread and butter’ after Rushall Olympic taste FA Cup joy
Adam Stevens is delighted with how life has begun with history-makers Rushall Olympic – who he claims were “probably written off” after the changes during the summer.
Stevens was appointed at Dales Lane in May, following the departure of Liam McDonald, and has since worked to re-build and prepare a new-look squad for the club’s second season in the National League North.
Despite sitting just inside the league relegation zone, the Pics have celebrated Cup success this week after reaching the first round of the FA Cup for the first time in their history by beating Peterborough Sports 5-4 on penalties on Tuesday night.
Returning to league action tomorrow, welcoming Darlington, boss Stevens hopes his side can pull themselves away from the danger zone.
“I think we were probably written off with a lot of change,” the Pics boss said, regarding their success so far this season.
“It’s hard for the manager, players and the club trying to get to know each other. It’s about us to keep improving.
