The Andy Kirby Kit Predictor Game The host's blue elements prevent us using our blue kit, which also can't be used at Potton on Tuesday, but given our free Saturday next weekend, we suspect the yellow and red kit to get another outing [7/8 correct so far this season]

The Colts‘s current form is boosted by a six nil win over the league’s basement boys Wantage. The club went out of the FA Trophy last time out at the hands of Chasetown.
Rovers managed to move level on points with today’s hosts with their draw at Kidlington, a result that brought an end to the string of consecutive defeats and showed more defensive solidity.
Basic directions;
Head toward the M1 and go north. Exit at junction 19 and join the M6. Keep left and exit at junction 4, then keep left again to enter the roundabout. Take the third exit onto the A446. Go over the next roundabout, then keep right to turn onto Coventry Road (this goes across the carriage way and isn’t light controlled. Caution is advised). When you reach a small green on the right hand side, turn right into Packington Lane. The entrance to the ground is on the left, among the trees. There is modest car parking which should be enough for our visit.
