Arya News - Tony Pennock has told his Haverfordwest County players they have a chance to make memories which will last a lifetime as they prepare for the Cymru Premier European play-off final against Caernarfon Town. Haverfordwest are looking to secure European qualification for only the third time in their history when they host Caernarfon at Bridge Meadow on Sunday (17:10 BST). It has been a fine season for the Bluebirds, whose third-place Cymru Premier finish matched their best in the history of the Welsh top flight.
After finishing seventh in 2022-23, Haverfordwest overcame Cardiff Met and Newtown in the Cymru Premier play-offs to secure their European place.
Having missed out on a play-off place last year on goal difference. Haverfordwest go straight into the final this time around courtesy of their league position, though that does mean they have not played a game since 19 April.
They had the best defensive record in the Cymru Premier this season and lost just seven of their 32 league games.
That impressive form has seen Pennock touted as a potential candidate to take over at League Two Newport County this summer.
The 54-year-old has been in charge at Haverfordwest for three years having previously coached at Hull City and Swansea City.
"I have had lots and calls and messages about the Newport speculation, but there has been no contact," Pennock said.
"It"s nice to be linked with things I suppose, but my focus is on Haverfordwest County."
