Stevenage's squad may have grown slightly through the summer but manager Alex Revell says there is still opportunities for players who have progressed through the club's academy.

A number of them appeared through the course of last season and one of them, Harry Draper, did his chances no harm at all in pre-season, scoring the winning goal in back-to-back 1-0 friendly wins at Hitchin Town and St Albans City.

The Boro boss says he still has plenty of work to do but

He said: "He’s scored two but he needs to improve in other areas so he has to work really hard.

"We have other players, who have been brought in to score goals for us, who we need to get back into the side and get games.

"But he’s doing what we’re asking him to do and he’s working hard and in pre-season, you want people to stand up and be counted.

"He’s showing us what he’s got, especially in front of goal, and it’s worthy of praise."

Alfie Williams, Mackye Townsend-West, Sam Dreyer and Yasin Arai are among the others to feature prior to the season's start.
