WESTBURY United are in danger of becoming cut adrift in the Premier Division relegation zone, despite some encouraging displays under the guidance of Derek Graham this term.

Graham will take his young side to Paulton for their final game of 2001 tomorrow knowing victory could put his side level on points with third from bottom Bridgwater.

He said: "They're all tough games in this league, but that means I don't have to lift the players. They'll work their socks off and are looking forward to it.

"This is our last game until January 5. We rearranged our Christmas games because a few of our lads were away and we could have been struggling."

In the First Division Warminster Town take on Ilfracombe tomorrow looking for their first home win of the season and know that three points could close the gap on their nearest rivals Wellington.

Manager Andy Crabtree is hoping his side can bounce back from a shocking 10-0 defeat in their last league outing at home to Weston St Johns nine days ago.

He said: "Anybody can beat anybody in this league and there is always a possibility. We've got a lot of youngsters and they are so unpredictable. It is just a confidence thing.

"We've got to approach it right and, with Sam Naish and Keith Ball back, I've got a stronger squad. Ilfracombe seem to have slipped in recent weeks, so you never know."

Naish, Ball, Dave Dredge, goalkeeper Lloyd Chamberlain and Crabtree will return to their former club when Warminster visit near neighbours Frome Town on Boxing Day, kick off 12pm.

He said: "They are certainly in-form at the moment. I know most of their players and I know a few of our lads are looking forward to the game."
