It will be a hard game. We struggled badly in the County Cup game there at the end of last season.
We can play much better than we did that night and we will have to if we are to overcome on of the favourites for promotion from North One.
Tim Wellock the Northern Echo's Darlington orientated rugby and cricket correspondent has already written us off. He says we have lost a couple of players and "struggled in our recruitment."
That's hardly fair to Messrs Painter, Prest, White, Parker, and Phil Thompson who certainly looked the part when he came on at Westoe.
