Cards target another cup win

Westfield v Woking (at the Laithwaite Community Stadium)
Surrey Senior Cup 3rd Round
7.45pm on Tuesday 9 February 2016

With the Cards’ place in the Quarter-Finals of the FA Trophy achieved on Saturday with a fairly comfortable 1-0 win over Oxford City, Garry Hill’s side can now focus on Tuesday on moving onto the same stage of the Surrey Senior Cup. There can surely be very few clubs who are such close neighbours but who meet so rarely. The game has been switched to the Laithwaite Community Stadium because of the state of Westfield’s pitch. Come down to cheer on the Cards!

WOKING

Garry will presumably wish to give some game time to those players who have not had much time on the pitch recently, including the likes of Nick Hamann, Godfrey Poku, Jake Caprice and Matt Robinson.

The Cards reached this stage of the competition with a 10-0 win over Sutton Common Rovers.

The winners of Tuesday night’s tie will be away to Molesey in the Quarter-Finals.

WESTFIELD

Westfield currently sit three places off the bottom of the Combined Counties League with 24 points from 20 games, having won six games, drawn six and lost eight. However, their position is misleading since they have half a dozen or so games in hand on most of the clubs above them. As this implies, Westfield have had a number of games postponed, mainly as the result of the state of their own pitch.

Westfield’s last league game was a 4-1 defeat at Horley Town on 2 February.

They beat Chertsey Town 2-0 at home in the last round of this cup competition.
