Vase test for Sidley

SIDLEY United entertain East Counties Premier side Dereham Town in the FA Vase on Saturday November 10.

Joint manager Peter Heritage said: "We don t know too much about them but that s the beauty of this competition.

"They sound like a decent side but I m still confident as on our day we can beat anyone.

"The biggest problem we have is if it goes to a replay as the FA are insisting it s played on Tuesday night.

"They re asking blokes who play for love not money to take a half day off work for a four-and-a-half-hour trip and then return home at 2 or 3am to get to work the following morning.

"It s a ridiculous situation but if that s what we have to do then we ll still take it on."

It will be Dave Carey s last match before a five-week suspension for a red card in Sunday parks football.

Paul Balch and Paul Sully could return but there are doubts over Russell Eldridge (groin injury).
