Buxton's winning start pleases Hayward
The Bucks have kicked off their season in fine style, thrashing Belper Town 7-0 in the FA Cup's first qualifying round on Tuesday night after opening their Northern Premier League account with a 4-2 home win over Radcliffe Borough on Saturday.
And with match action coming thick and fast - Buxton will play five games between September 19 and October 3 - Hayward admits there is little time to work on tactics.

"Thursdays will be a bit of a light session or basically a massage session as the lads will be putting a lot in. On the whole, we can't ask more than winning games."
While Buxton have made a strong start to the campaign, some members of his newly-assembled squad are desperate to get more game time and be part of a winning side.
"I'm disappointed with some lads who we told week-in and week-out it's a squad game," he added. "One or two's already knocking on the door, asking 'why aren't I playing?' - which is annoying me a little bit.
"That's just how it goes."
Diego De Girolamo and James Walshaw netted hat-trick's on Tuesday night with James Hurst also on target.
