TAVISTOCK manager Stuart Henderson is keen to play down the growing sense of expectation surrounding his side after they were brought back down to earth with a surprise 2-1 home defeat to Wimborne Town on Saturday.

Tavistock boss is keen to play down high expectations

The Lambs suffered saw a sixmatch winning run brought to an end by the Dorset side, but Tavi have the ideal chance to put things right this evening when they welcome Bashley to Langsford Park (7.45pm).

The match pits two of the Southern League Division One South's most in-form teams together, but while Tavi are third in the table on merit right now, Henderson is quick to remind people that survival was the aim before a ball had been kicked this campaign.

"You are not going to win every game and we had won six before that, which is probably above expectations and I just felt that the pitch was slow, we looked a bit lethargic, leggy and a bit tired," Henderson said. "I wanted to change it more than I did but I probably went against my nature because the boys had been on a good run and that breeds a lot of confidence.
