From the gaffer
Ahead of the game, Andy Morrison spoke to the club's YouTube channel saying; "We're coming up against a team, similar to ourselves who are bang in form - they've really hit the ground now, results are coming, clean sheets and they're in a rich vein of form, similar to ourselves so it's got all the makings of a great game. I think over the last couple of weeks that Bala have begun to show that the changes that came in the summer are coming to fruition, the freshness as well and I've got to take my hat off to Colin on that."

Morrison continued; "It's going to be a tough game, it always is against Bala, but like I say, I've got great respect for what they've done this season and I think that respect comes from a period of years of playing against each other - you're going to fall out with managers along the way, we're all trying to win and matchdays is a battlefield and you've got to find a way to win and for there to be a winner there has to be a loser."
