There is a real buzz for the fixture around the youngsters in the village and the Dragons are really looking forward to the encounter, sources linked to the club believe they have a very good chance in this year's FA competition. First team assistant manager, Nick Allston, will be taking charge of the side which he has hand-picked from the three very talented under 18 youth sides that the club have playing under its umbrella this year. Allston commented "I am very proud to be leading the side out this year and I am really looking forward to working with such a talented group of youngsters. I admire the hard work that the management teams of all three sides put into their lads, because of these efforts I am able to pick the best local players who will hopefully build on the success that their sides have already had this season. As a club, we are working hard to forge closer links with the local community; these are exciting times at the club. Do try to come along to Broad Lane Sports Ground and support the youngsters on Monday night". Nick Murphy-Whymark Note: Wivenhoe won the match 2-0 in extra time
