Ashford’s Current League Form (six games) WWLWDL
Did you know… Earlier in the season, Ashford played a touring Chinese side, Tianjin, in a friendly. Winning the game by ten goals to two.

Rovers will definitely be without Sam Macrae for this game, the midfielder will be out for a minimum of six to eight weeks with the broken arm he sustained against Chalfont. Grant Fryer will be looking to get back into the side after his concussion related break from the side. Josh Crawley made his second debut for the Walnut Boys away at Aylesbury at the weekend and made an impact with an assist. If he plays, Martin Conway will move one appearance ahead of Sam Macrae as the player in the current squad to have represented the club the most. Both players are currently on 266 games for the club (the overall record in the recorded histories is 307).
