SATURDAY’S DOUBLE HEADER

MATCH PREVIEW: BURY ST EDMUNDS

The final block is upon is and we still have a great deal to play for. Sitting 7th in National 2 East, we know that there are potentially four teams within three points of us. When the final whistle goes on the 27th April if we want to feel proud of our progress this season the results in these next three games are very important. That’s why they call it the business end of the season.
We had the opportunity to go unbeaten in our last block of three games but fell at the final hurdle. Away at Old Albanians our defensive performance was below standard and the last two weeks we have been working on the things that bring our defence to life. I’m looking forward to seeing how the team builds on this progress tomorrow; we have shown what we can do in training but must transfer this to match day.
The other game at the Marine Travel Ground is happening straight after the final whistle of the 1st XV, when our Under 18 colts will take on Bury in Saturday’s double header. It’s a great opportunity to see the Canterbury 1st XV of the future.
