ROCK bottom Sandwell Borough make the trip to Masons Road on Saturday still searching for their first Midland Alliance win of the season.

The Black Country side have picked up just three points out of a possible 51 and should be easy pickings for a Stratford side buoyed by successive league triumphs.

Manager Lennie Derby, though, won't be taking anything for granted against the side with the worst defensive record in the division, especially after seeing his side come unstuck on several occasions.

Derby's main concern, though, will be the state of the Masons Road surface. Tuesday night's scheduled Birmingham Senior Cup tie against Kings Heath was postponed for a second time and is now likely to again take precedence over the Invitation Cup clash with Holwell Sports, who currently top the Leicestershire Senior League.

Town's scheduled Alliance home game with champions Oadby Town has been moved back to December 19, although again that might have to be changed because of the recent ravages of the weather.

One game that is fixed on the fixture list is the Boxing Day visit of Stourport Swifts which will kick off at 11am.
