Rockets Up For The Cup
Premier League Knock Out Cup Final 1st Leg
Kings Lynn Stars v Rye House Rockets
Rye House Rockets travel to Kings Lynn on Friday full of confidence that they can lift their third major trophy of the season. Despite missing Stuart Robson Rye House will be hoping to keep the score line close ahead of Saturday’s second leg back in Hoddesdon. When the two teams met last at the Norfolk Arena Kings Lynn recorded a 15-point victory but the Rockets have already beaten their opponents comfortably at home twice this season. The action at the Norfolk Arena gets underway at 7:30pm weather permitting. If the forecast rain does intervene its thought that the meeting will be re staged on Wednesday October 26th.

Boro count the cost of budget
For the second time in two seasons, Stevenage were forced to release a player in order to stay within the Conference wage structure. Last year, Craig Mcallister was sent on loan to stay within budget, and Richie Hanlon was released completely. This year it is David Perpetuini who had only been at the club for a couple of months since his release from Walsall in the summer. Boro go into the televised game against Dagenham knowing that a good win will take them as high as 5th, above the Exeter team they defeated only two weeks ago.
