He said, “We were really pleased with the win at Plymouth. We controlled the game and scored some goals, so there was nothing to complain about.
“The clean sheets are becoming a regular occurrence and the team are getting very competitive about it.
“Plymouth had one shot on target against us and there has probably only been three shots on target against us in the last three games. That's really pleasing.”
*
Marrs then looked ahead to the Basildon match on Sunday and is wary of the threat from the Essex club.
“C&K Basildon have just been promoted and they have Steve Tilson as their manager, so we know what they will be about and we expect another hard game.”
*
The club are on the look-out for mascots for this fixture and the rest of Albion women’s first-team games. If you are aged between seven and 14 and want to be involved, then please e-mailwomensfootball@bhafc.co.uk.

ALBION (probable squad): Baker (GK), Boswell, C Cooper, D Cooper, Ashton-Jones, Somes, Barton, Blackie, Young, Leitch, Rowe, Natkiel, Taylor, Stenning, Baker-Carroll.
