Handsworth Parramore players won’t have one eye on next week’s Emirates FA Cup trip to Lincoln United when they host Parkgate tomorrow.
That’s the message from Mick Godber.
“The players won’t have the FA Cup on the minds, I’ve told them that,” Godber said.
“We’ve told them to forget about the FA Cup. Parkgate on Saturday is more important. To be fair, they’re good lads so we won’t have any trouble.”
Second-bottom Parkgate will certainly fancy their chances too after the impressive 3-3 draw against leaders Cleethorpes Town on Wednesday night.
“We had two hard games against them last year so it is a tricky fixture,” he said.
“If we’re at it, the league table says we should win, but it doesn’t work like that in football.
“We played Worksop and should have won comfortably, but we lost.”
