Wimborne to keep their cool against 'bogey team' Didcot

BOSS Matty Holmes believes Wimborne Town’s poor record against “bogey team” Didcot will not have an impact on tomorrow's season-defining battle.

Magpies go into their crucial Southern League West play-off semi-final against the Railwaymen having lost both league fixtures with them this season.

Diddy overcame Holmes’s charges 4-2 at Loop Meadow in August before completing a league double with a 1-0 win at Cuthbury in December.

But with Magpies having home advantage and expecting a bumper crowd for the end-of-season spectacle (7.45pm), Holmes is keen for his talented squad to express themselves.

He told the Daily Echo: “Everything rides on one game and we just have to make sure we stay calm and stick to what we want to do.

“The boys are used to playing high-pressure games. They will take things on the chin and just get on with it.

“That’s what I am looking forward to, seeing them thrive in the environment and showcasing what good players they are.”

He added: “Didcot are our bogey team, they have beaten us twice this season.
