Well folks it's that time again. Strap yourselves in and hold on tight. Only a few games ago we were 5 points adrift of Bracknell and looking dead and buried. I am highly delighted with the reaction of the players in their quest to avoid the drop and those of you that made the long trip to Bridgwater will have seen how far we have come in a short space of time.

Win lose or draw on Saturday, we can all be proud of our team and their efforts in what has been a very exciting few weeks, and it goes without saying that we will give it everything on the day and hope we get the outcome that we all so desperately want.

After yet another positive and high-spirited training session last night, the boys are totally focused and quite prepared for what will be an extremely tough match against one of the most consistent sides in the division. Andy Sinton had the luxury of resting quite a few players on Wednesday and I'm sure he will want to win the game to ensure home advantage in the play-offs.

On our player front we have a couple of question marks over a few who are carrying knocks, bumps and bruises and a couple of late fitness tests.

The noise from you the fans on Tuesday night was just fantastic - it felt like a home game for us - and so I hope your voices have recovered in time for one more game.

Hopefully we will see all of you on Saturday and good luck to all those brave souls on the walk. Please make as much noise as possible and sing your hearts out.

Finally as I said at the start, prepare yourselves for a nailbiting end which I'm sure you're all used to now having been following Slough Town, especially over the last few seasons.

Thank you all for your continued support and if you can not make tomorrow's game, just cross everything you can.

Sweets.
