That's harsh. If anyone knows any professional travel agents willing to organise this for free then please step forward.

Until then we'll need to make do with people doing the best they can as volunteers around their paid job.

Confue fighting did make me chuckle though!

I'm fairly confident that the coach driver is (allegedly) a professional as he gets paid to do his job. Please read ALL of the words in the correct order and let them sink in before making silly assumptions based on what you THINK you've seen. It just saves the confusion........ :D

Back to discussing today's game ....

I think the game will show us if we've overcome a key issue we had last season, where we kept on losing the game following a "big" game. Last season we lost the following game after we played Cambridge City, Dover and the Spalding away game. If we can get a win today, even if it is as streaky as our win there last season, then we'll continue to look like serious contenders.

I agree Formic, psychologically today is a massive game - to go points clear of the chasing pack is vitally important, with Huntingdon being the only team who can overhaul us if they win their 3 games in hand - I'd still rather have the points in the bag than games in hand as last season showed.

This will be a tough one, but then all games for us are because they all want to beat us - that's flattering really :)

Fingers crossed come 5pm we're 3 points clear !!

Massive game, especially with, as mentioned above, so many other teams being in Vase action. Our bye into the further rounds of the Vase was hard earned and today is one of our rewards for it - the chance to go 3 points clear and get another match out of the way. Come on lads, make it count...

When we visited Sleaford at about this time last season I thought the gridlock in the Town Centre must have been due to a tractor show or a vegetable fair, but as it's equally bad today it must be the normal state of affairs.
