Official Match Preview

http://www.afcdiamonds.com/raunds-town- ... 20th-april

Raunds Town Clubhouse/bar should be open from 1pm on Saturday. We're trying to find out if it may be open a little earlier on Saturday ahead of the game.

Also don't forget that after the game we haver the Race Night, so either pop home and come back later, or stay on at the ground, as the bar will be open.

I haven't been to Kiln Park for about 15 months. What's the state of the pitch these days, Is it still sloping to one end and dry and dusty ?

Don't forget that up to April last year we had very little rain during the winter period so a lot of pitches would have been dry and dusty.

One of the Ladies would be best placed to answer that following their match on it on Sunday.

Do we have any details on parking?

Pitch is in good condition considering. It's dry though and could do with some rain before the weekend. It's a bumpy pitch, difficult to play a smooth pass flat along the ground. Hopefully there will be no wind, that caused problems especially going uphill.
