Hayes & Yeading play a level below Banbury in the football pyramid but are likely to prove tough opposition as they currently top the Isthmian League Division One South Central table with 25 points from 10 games and are very much free scoring with 40 goals from those 10 games. Lee Barney is their top goalscorer this season with 18 goals from 19 games in all competitions. The Middlesex side will come to the Banbury Plant Hire Community Stadium tomorrow full of confidence after going unbeaten in their last 10 games in all competitions and having won nine of those. In the last round of the Trophy Hayes & Yeading beat our league rivals Hitchin Town 1-0 at Top Field, so playing a higher level side will not faze them!

A likely familiar name in the Hayes & Yeading line up will be Scott Bridges. The midfielder made 115 appearances for the Puritans in two spells. After spending four years with Royston Town he joined Hayes & Yeading this past summer. Remarkably, despite over 60 miles between the clubs, Scott is just one of ten players that we have managed to identify to have played for both sides since Hayes and Yeading merged. See article in tomorrow’s matchday programme for details.

For the Puritans Marvin Martin, Jack Finch and John Mills are out injured. There are concerns about others – there may be an update from Mike Ford on his Friday afternoon chat with Stewart Green on Puritans Radio around 4.30pm though he may want to keep some things “close to his chest”. New signing on loan from Oxford United left back Matt Taylor is likely to be involved as all the paperwork was completed in time for him to play but other new signing midfielder Edmund Hottor is cup tied.

Note that the club will be donating the proceeds from the 50/50 draw tomorrow to goalkeeper Jack Harding who has not been playing due to the injury he sustained at Barwell and this has also impacted on his work.

With it being Remembrance Day on Sunday, there will be a collection at the game tomorrow for the Poppy Appeal by local veterans.

The day will finish in the evening in the Clubhouse with the first gig for the Keyboard Warriors, Commercial Director, Mark Allitt's new band, though please note this is now sold out.
