Last year the "visitors" put 100 points on the Ams at which point the Ref felt a few pints were needed.
The two sides are drawn again prompting much debate over who will be playing for whom. The talented up and coming lads from the Bucks are the piggies in the middle. They have helped the Ams field a side on occasion this season and many have also played for the Stags.
There has been a fair amount of behind the scenes negotiation - but if you want to know the sides you'd best turn up for kick off.

Pyman Tonight
By Dave Picken - April 14 2010
Can any other town in the country conjure up a "second team" competition which has so much history and which is so keenly fought? Probably not. It all gets underway again tonight with the big question at Brinkburn being can the Ams give the Stags a run for their money? Kick off 6.00 [ish].
