PETERSFIELD Town chairman Graeme Moir feels it might be time to resort to alternative methods to help the club get a Southern League win on the board.

The Rams have only enjoyed that winning feeling twice in 37 league games so far in their Southern League Division 1 Central campaign.

The first one came in only their second game of the season when they recorded a shock 3-2 victory over north Hampshire rivals Farnborough.

The second and last league win they enjoyed was a 2-1 triumph over Aylesbury on November 12. Petersfield have drawn only two games and lost all the rest of the 21 league games played since those last three points gained.

Even more depressing for the Rams camp is that since their 2-2 draw at home to Fleet Town on January 2, they have lost 12 league games in a row.

With those stats making for painful reading, Moir believes it might be time to seek alternative help to try and get the team winning once again.

“I’m sure someone at the club has crashed a lorry load of mirrors into a mirror factory such is the bad luck and fortunes we have had to endure this season,” joked Moir.

“I might have to do what Barry Fry reportedly did when he was Birmingham City manager – he urinated in the four corners of the pitch to try and rid St Andrew’s of some kind of gypsy’s curse.

“It certainly feels like someone, somewhere has cast a spell on us – nothing either of our own doing or the influences of match officials or the opposition goes our way.

“We couldn’t win a one ticket lottery at the moment but it is down to us to keep working on and off the pitch to turn things around.

“No one is interested in our hard luck stories, no one has any sympathy for us – the only people who can change things is us, me, the committee, the football management, the players, the volunteers and the supporters.

“It is tough going and it isn’t easy to keep yourself motivated when you have lost 12 games in a row but we need to find that determination within all of us to keep going and keep pushing to change our fortunes around.”

Petersfield host AFC Dunstable at Love Lane tomorrow (Saturday). The visitors are currently in fifth place and looking to secure a play-off position.

The Rams’ main injury worry is striker Billy Connor. The youngster is expected to still be sidelined with a leg injury.
