Match details

Yep, big game this one. Let's hope the team turn up and play to their full potential, it'll put us in a great position.
Exciting isn't it?
Is Daldy banned for this game?

Yes. Possibly for 4 games as he already has one red card this season.
We have Tejan, Ollie Evans or O Toole to take his place

Big game, a win would really put us in the mix but a draw wouldn’t be too bad. I think Carlton and Anstey are obviously top 5 but the other 3 places are very much up for grabs.

4 game ban for Daldy. As Sussex Diamond has said, the fact it's his second red counts against him. Would expect him to play for Sileby whilst he's banned, as bans at Step 4 and above, don't apply at Step 5 and below, and vice versa.

Could be JonJoe back in midfield with Tejan going back at CH

If it's on, as its started raining today again!

Everywhere the ground is sodden around this area, no wonder games are postponed. Hope we get a drier spell so we can get fixtures played soon.
