Really hoping we give a number of the U21s a run out in this to give them an opportunity to show what they can do, particularly the two wingers we saw in preseason. It would also be good if Joe Curtis starts as part of his comeback from injury.

K*ttering away game off so ours not looking good. I wonder what the record is for numbers of times a game has been postponed!

They probably did that to avoid Frome travelling and risking a late postponement.
We'll probably have to wait to see what the conditions are nearer kick-off. The forecast for Wellingborough has varied between mist and fog all day for the time of the game but has recently been upgraded to fog for most of it.
It is very localised though fog and as long as the ref can see both goals and the sides of the pitch it should be ok.
Fingers crossed....

Lino's need to be able to see from one side of the pitch to another as well. That could be an issue as most of them can't in August.

Enjoyed the game, a good workout and a good shift put by everyone we thought.
A deserved win, don't know how strong the team they put out was, but if anywhere near full-strength they'll struggle to avoid relegation.
