Preview by Jon Green
After Saturday's victory in the FA Vase against competition from Devon, we welcome another side from the same county, Ivybridge Town FC.
Ivybridge, which is situated close to Plymouth, currently sit in 10th place in the Jewson Western League on 19 points. They are two places above ourselves having played one game more. Our visitors had a tough start to the season but have since rallied with four victories in their previous five league matches. The most recent of which was a 2-1 win over St. Austell on Tuesday evening. Their current top scorer in Rory Busby on seven goals.
As mentioned, we go into the game off the back of a solid 3-0 win over Torridgeside AFC in the FA Vase which has set up a local derby with Radstock Town in the next round! Our previous league match against Cleveland showed how resilient the squad can be having come from 2-0 down to grab a draw and arguably could have gone on to win the game. With the recent return of Martin Lenihan and Chris Peck from injury, Ray Johnston will be hoping his full squad will be fully available for the first time this season.
We'd love to have you with us to get behind the lads from the off!
