A Word From The Gaffer
Speaking after Saturday’s win at Bamber Bridge, Steve Cunningham said: “Not playing last week I thought might hinder us but the way we started the game today, we were outstanding.
“In the last 15 minutes they threw the kitchen sink at it but to watch our team defend the way we did, I'm massively proud of that performance.”
Looking ahead to tomorrow evening's clash with Prescot, the gaffer said: “It’s a tough place to go and we’ve got to go there off the back of what we have just done.
“We can go into the Prescot game absolutely buzzing.”
Opposition Watch
Prescot endured a troublesome first half to this year’s campaign, finding just five league victories in 22 matches and picking up nine draws along the way.
Their 2-0 triumph at home to Guiseley last Saturday leaves them sitting in 15th place, just four points behind the Robins.
Cables have played two more league fixtures (22) than the Robins (20) so far this season.
Last Time We Met
The two sides last met in August of this year, where neither team could break the deadlock, resulting in a 0-0 draw at Hurst Cross.
