Gorleston manager Richard Daniels is refusing to get carried away by the his side's 100pc start to the season after four games.

Gorleston are determined to build on last season's Norfolk Senior Cup success and a mid-table finish in a campaign overshadowed by the death of club president Jimmy Jones and their manager insisted: 'We will continue to work hard, keep our feet on the ground and, boring as it sounds, take each game as it comes.

Wisbech Town are hot on their heels and will be hoping their new secret weapon that allows them to play flowing football - their pitch - will prove its worth when the Fenmen entertain Yaxley.

Manager Steve Appleby said: 'It's amazing what a bit of grass on the pitch does for us. Our pitch has always been a problem, which is why we often play our best football away, but recently grass has been springing up everywhere.

'We want to play football and we like to keep the ball on the deck so a good pitch certainly helps us. We played some unbelievable football on Tuesday and we put on a show for the home fans.'

If Wisbech do win they will face Kettering Town – where Appleby spent a year as a player.
