HE writing will be on the wall for the Studley players this weekend when they take on Oadby Town.

Bees boss Kevin Rowlands will write the scoreline '6-0' in the dressing room to remind his side of the outcome the last time the teams met - and he doesn't want a repeat performance!

"That game should be fresh in all of our memories until the end of the season," Rowlands admitted. "We were 1-0 down after just 12 seconds and yet the players are told week in, week out, that this is an unpredictable league and anything can happen.

"No-one would have expected leaders Malvern to lose five out of their last six games but that is the sort of league it is."

Studley had a Saturday off at the weekend and Rowlands is hoping his players will return refreshed and raring to go.

"The majority of sides would probably have the players in for training or arrange a friendly," the manager added. "But I think it is good for them to do their own thing. It also means that those who have been carrying little injuries will have had time for it to clear up."
