Both teams made changes for the encounter as they took a break from their hectic Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division campaigns, but the Steelmen were ruthless.

"The young lads that came in, and I think we had four 17-year-olds involved did well, so it was really, really pleasing.
"We got rest into some the lads and minutes into the ones that need it, and it gives us another game now, away at Brackley."
