Its now back to back games against Sphinx,who a few weeks ago looked dead and buried. But are now on a decent run, which makes our win there look even better.
Also a few weeks ago when we were heading into this run of games against the bottom group I would have expected near on 15 points from 5 but several are now picking up points Bedworth particularly. The weakest now appear to be Rugby Town and St Neots.

Agreed, all the bottom teams are now fighting for survival so we must be at our best on Saturday. I really want to see our side start to hit top form because it's a cracking team when it does and who knows where it could end up? I'd stick with JJ at the back and probably put Evans in the midfield, although no one would complain if Tejan was put there. I'd also like to see O'Brien given a starting shirt.
Come on you Diamonds, light those fires inside yourselves and go for it.

Only problem with starting O'brien is that he doesn't really fit the formation we play right now. Started against Bourne and was ineffective and rightly withdrawn fir the more capable barnett on the right. Scored a tidy goal against Warwick, but looks like he'd be better played alongside a striker
