Frome Town vs. AFC Totton: Preview and Ticket Info

Steve Jupp, BA11's Club Historian, delivers his final preview of the season.
If the league table was based solely on away matches, the Robins would currently find themselves in the top half.
Unfortunately, home games count as well, and it is their poor record at Badgers Hill which has brought about a swift return to Step Four.
They have the chance on Saturday to end the campaign on a high with the visit of promotion chasing AFC Totton who are already assured of the runners-up spot, a position they have permanently occupied since early December.
It will be interesting to see how the Stags approach this end-of-season encounter. With a midweek home play-off semi-final against either Dorchester or Havant & Waterlooville to come, will they rest key personnel or go full tilt in preparation for a huge promotion clash or perhaps something in between?
Home form has not been a problem at all for Totton, theirs has been the best in the division, boasting the only unbeaten record so Frome’s hard-earned 1-1 draw at The Snows Stadium back in January can be considered a tremendous result.

The Scarlet Runners began the season with four straight home losses and have suffered the same sorry fate in their last four Badgers Hill fixtures. It would mean a lot to the faithful fans (average home league gates are still over the 500 mark) to see that run broken and, if the level of performance of the Easter encounters with Dorchester and Plymouth Parkway is anything to go by, there is every chance.
It goes under the radar the amount of effort Steve puts into composing our previews, the support he gives the media team with stats, trivia and insight and, of course, the warmth and good humour with which he does so! A massive thank you from all at the Club!
