Hawks fans can be so influential in maiden National League home match

They will be determined to get their season up and running in front of their own supporters.
Defeat to Barrow on Saturday certainly hasn't dampened any enthusiasm.

That can all change at home with the support of the crowd helping to swing things more in the Hawks' favour.
Bradbury said: '˜We're feeling good. We lost the game on Saturday but I didn't think the score reflected the game and neither did their manager.

'˜This is going to be our first home game in the National League so we are creating history again. We want to get a good crowd behind us.
'˜A big home crowd can influence the game.'
Hawks will be very keen to make sure they don't have to wait long for that first win after getting promotion last season.
Even though Boreham Wood are likely to be one of the best teams there will be no thought of trying to negate them and taking a point.
