Stourbridge out to bounce back

Stourbridge boss Gary Hackett has called on his side to bury the disappointment of their FA Cup exit when they meet Gloucester in the FA Trophy Preliminary round this weekend.

The Glassboys were thrashed 5-0 by Kings Lynn when they crashed out of the Cup last month.

Now they face another testing tie when another Southern Premier League side Gloucester visit tomorrrow.

Hackett is without Adam Bastable, who is out for six weeks after injuring knee ligament, for a game that he knows will be tough.

"It's going to be a difficult game - we know that - but we should see it as an opportunity to avenge that Kings Lynn game," he said.

"We didn't perform as well as we know we can on that day and I'd like to think we'll put in a much better performance this weekend in the Trophy," added the Glassboys manager.
