With just two pre-season friendlies to go before we start the new season away to Sleaford Town on the 27th July, we caught up with Manager Reece Limbert to get his thoughts on the pre season so far.

"I am fairly happy with pre-season so far, with  two 2-2 draws against step 4 opposition in the past week it shows we are heading in the right direction. There’s still room for improvement, but we’ve made positive strides to be in a different position to last season. Our new signings have settled in nicely and we have several retained players looking fitter and sharper ahead of next week’s season opener".

Ahead of that match we have special visitors and newly promoted Mansfield Town heading to the RM on saturday managed by Nigel Clough who opened the new RM facilities here at Aerial way after a long and protracted ground move. It was a night where around 400 supporters joined us on a cold December winter's night and Limbert is looking forward to what should be another great occasion. "We’re all really looking forward to Saturday’s game against Mansfield Town. It will be a great occasion for the club, the supporters and the players as we welcome a professional league one outfit to the ground."

We are urging all supporters to purchase advance tickets to help with crowd management on the day and by doing so you will benefit by a fast track entrance avoiding the queues.

You have just two opportunities to pre purchase tickets from the club shop at the following times:

Wednesday 17th 6.30pm – 9.30pm
Friday 19th 6.30pm – 9.30pm
