Following the 2-0 loss against Stamford, Simon Hollyhead spoke to Dave England: “definitely not the outcome we wanted, we prepared well for this game Tuesday and Thursday.

The two takeaways are we were too passive in the final third and needed to defend the first goal better.

We know the desire and care is there, full focus on a reaction on Monday.”

Tickets are available here.

The reds have won one of their last five leaving them 18th in the table.

When the sides met earlier in the season, it ended in a 0-0 draw on Boxing Day
