Leamington are the featured National League North team in today's Non-League Paper.
The new recruits are all discussed, 'Getting the goalkeeper situation sorted was a big thing on my mind,' said Paul Holleran. Holleran turns 50 next month and is approaching 1,000 games in management.
Discussing his recruitment strategy he said, 'We do look at Step 3 players, up-and-coming players, and players who have been released. They should have the mind set that they can get into, or back into, full-time football. The best way to perform is in the National League - the rest will look after itself.'
Holleran was described as optimistic and realistic about what Leamington can achieve this season. 'National League North is a really strong league. It's a bit like the Premier League - you can split it into three sections. You sort of know where Spennymoor, York, Boston, Brackley and a few others will be.'
'We've been in the bottom third and hovering around it. The next step is trying to be a team that gets into that next tier. It's within our capabilities to compete with teams settled and established in the division. That has to be the aim.'
