Maids focus on fourth local derby (19.12.03)

A FOURTH local derby in the space of five games sees Maidenhead back in league action at Braywick tomorrow (Saturday), when they face old rivals High Wycombe, kick-off 2.15pm.
Maids won 37-3 when the two teams met in late November, but coach Simon Edwards claimed he was taking nothing for granted.
He said: "It's an awkward one for us. We beat them quite well at their ground but they were always in it.
"They have a decent pack and they work very hard.”
Wycombe also have an added incentive for tomorrow's clash, as they seek to move away from the foot of the table.
Edwards added: “It's make or break for them now. Christmas and New Year will probably decide whether they survive in this league or not.
“They will probably be targeting a game like this and they will be coming to beat us. They will also have players back from injury. They were no where near full strength last time.”
The game is equally important to Maidenhead, however, who have to keep on winning if they hope to finish the season on top of the heap.
Edwards said: “This is a must win game for us and we have to win it well if we want to close the gap on Swanage.
“We’ve been looking at ways of scoring more points. The key is getting into the scoring zones and then being clinical.
“You have to come away with three, five or seven points.”
