KIDDDERMINSTER Harriers captain Stuart Whitehead admits it will be "an honour and a privilege" to lead out his team at Wembley Stadium against Stevenage Borough in the FA Trophy final on Saturday.

The ex-Shrewsbury Town defender visited the new national stadium on Friday as part of a preview day for the teams competing in the Trophy and Vase finals.

Whitehead said: "It's taken our breath away to see the completed Wembley Stadium.

"It's a fantastic stadium. It's going to be an honour and a privilege to be captain of Kidderminster and it will be amazing to lead the team out and play at a venue like this. I just can't wait for the big day to arrive now.

"You feel a bit nervous just being inside the stadium, so being in front of 80,000 people with all your friends and family there will be incredible."

Harriers and Stevenage have sold around 49,000 tickets between them and online sales have been booming, so there is a good chance there will be around 80,000 fans at the final.

The Aggborough skipper, who was joined by club chairman Barry Norgrove, team-mate Russell Penn and assistant manager Neil Howarth for the trip to Wembley, added: "The stadium is quite enclosed and every seat is close to the pitch - the atmosphere is going to be incredible.

"You can just imagine the roar there will be when the teams walk out - and hopefully when we score a goal!

"It's just important that everyone plays well and all you'd ask is that you play to your best and that should be enough. Hopefully that would be good enough to see us pick up the Trophy because that will be the icing on the cake."
