After the joy of midweek cup victory, its back to the bread and butter of UCL Prem South survival in the first of our Easter double header.

ON Chenecks sit three places and 15 points ahead of Yaxley at kick off. They have reached the points level need for survival and will be relaxed and enjoying their end of season games with little pressure.

The Cuckoos need a win and need it desperately. Whilst other results have been going their way in recent weeks, three points would take us a step closer to our goal of remaining in step 5 this season.

We can talk about suspensions and player movement and uncertainty, and we no doubt will. But the maths is simple, we need to win two of our games to avoid needing favours.

If the game with FCP in midweek is anything to go on, along with recent performances and the win against Newport Pagnell, we are battling hard.

As with the other night, your support is crucial so if you can make the trip and make some noise it will be much appreciated.

The Cuckoo is calling.

Our hosts have won 1 of their last 5 matches, ironically also against Pagnell, but have lost their last two without scoring.

Elsewhere, relegation rivals Bugbrooke travel to March and Oadby to Eynesbury... two of our local rivals could do with helping us out !
