WHAT WE’RE SAYING

Following our last game, Graham Fenton said: “We look forward to every game, like to say we don’t get to train much, but we’ll do some more offensive stuff this week.

“We’ll give the lads a couple of days break now until Thursday as they’ve worked hard over the course of the last two games and need a little bit of a rest as we look forward to the game on Saturday.”

LAST TIME WE MET

This will be the first meeting between the two sides on Saturday, September 3, 2022, as they have never played each other in a competitive match before.
