Tudors May Have YouTube To Thank For A Fast Start!

Bobby Wilkinson may have revealed the secret to Hemel Hempstead Town’s great start - some Sunday snooping!

The Tudors are flying and went top of the National League South on Monday night after a convincing win over Welling United.

Wilkinson told us in the summer that he is determined to be involved at the right end of the season after a few years of firefighting down the bottom.

It’s so far so good after four others wins over Weymouth, Enfield, Bath City and Aveley.

The Vauxhall Road boss has certainly been putting in the hours and explained more behind his personal process the day after a game.

He said: “One of the things I always do is take some time out the next day and go on YouTube.

“I’m not really one for social media but I do like to go online and listen in to what the other managers have said after their games.

“Especially if we are playing them soon. You can learn so much from the interviews after matches. I’ve done enough over the years so I always think it’s time well spent.

“You can pick up on little things and every little helps. There are so many excellent managers in this league it would be silly not to. You can’t ever really have a day off.”

It’s no wonder he is putting in the hours. Hemel‘s manager craves a fifth promotion after a couple of seasons doing something he’s not all too familiar with.

The Tudors represent a chance to get back on the promotion push wagon and he said: “This club hasn’t had too much to shout about for a while now, not since the days of Dean Brennan really. The aim is to change all that.

“It’s a great club with fantastic people but we need to push it in the right direction. Personally, I want to be up that other end, in the mix of promotion again. I like to build teams, create a collective and this project excites me so much.”
