 Diddy make one of our shorter trips in the League this season; to Bulpit Lane and Hungerford Town tomorrow (Sat 28 January).
it's a really fascinating one this for many reasons, not least because the Crusaders have the best home record of any South & West Division side, and as we all know Diddy have been far happier on our travels in recent seasons this one being no different.
The other intrigue of course is the presence of a number of ex-Didcot players - aside from manager Bobby Wilkinson, there is keeper Michael Watkins, matty Jack, Scott Davis and prolific scorer Mark Draycott who will all be looking forward to this one I'm sure. Add to that list Jamie Gosling, who always seems to play well against us, then the size of the task in hand is evident.
But we've never been more dangerous this season than when we've not been given a hope of getting a result and in many respects all the pressure is on Hungerford to win this one. We come into this on the back of two draws and a stunning victory at Yate, So the confidence is being built and our lads will have benefited from a free week while Hungerford have been in Berks & Bucks Cup action.
Supporters unable to get to the game will be able to get updates on twitter or, if you're near an FM radio, there will be regular updates from some clown at the game via Danny Cox's afternoon show from 2pm on 95.2 Radio Oxford . There's no supporters coach so read-on for directions to the Bulpit....
In other news well done this week to both our Youth teams, the U16's for their excellent Cup win against Burnham, and to our U18s Allied Counties side who went top of the Central Division following their victory over Kidlington. Keep it up lads!

Congratulations to our under 16s who are now through to the semi-final of the Berks & Bucks County Cup after beating Burnham Juniors FC 4 - 1 in the quarter finals today.
