Michael Stone: Nothing is finalised yet

Posted on: Sun 04 Apr 2010

Now is not the time to take our foot off the gas - Nothing is finalised yet.......was the message from R&DFC Assistant Manager Michael Stone when asked about the end of season run-in ahead of the game against Crawley - today (Good Friday) at 7:45pm. It is a regular game, so fans can either buy their tickets from the Ticket Office for seating - or pay cash on the turnstile for the De Banke (home fans only) or the away end. The Ticket Office is open all day today - from 10am through until 7:45pm.

Although you are 10 points clear, Crawley and Kidderminster will still consider themselves contenders for at least one of the play-off spots ?

Although we are 10 points clear, some teams still have 21 points to play for, so it means nothing really, which we said in the team meeting this morning. We reviewed the Kettering game, looking at things we are doing really well at the moment, and points we could perhaps have done better. We've also said nothing has been achieved yet, and we've gone out and trained extremely hard, and with a good attitude, and it's important that these players realise that the time to look at certain things is when you review them at the end of the season, and can then look at how well you've done during the season.

Now is not the time to take the foot off the gas - it's the time to keep it firmly pushed down, and to make sure nobody behind us gets a little sniff of anyone having a wobble. We are only here now because of what we've done over the past weeks, and that has been by doing the same thing week in and week whether we are at home or away, or who we are playing. It's up to these players to make sure that the bar that they have raised stays up there, and that nobody gets a little sniff that maybe they can get the 10 points and catch us. The gauntlet has been thrown the players themselves to keep it going.
