New signing Justin Richards scored his 3rd goal of pre season as Neil Tooths side played out a draw against new Evo Stik Premier side Stourbridge Fc on Saturday.

We caught up with the manager who had this to say, "Im pleased with our performance on Saturday as Stourbridge are a very good side and I fully expect them to be pushing for promotion from the premier next season. They put us under lots of pressure at times but that's exactly why we play these games top see how we cope and to be fair we did ok. We also caused them a number of problems throughout the game so all in all it was good pre season game for both sides."

Next up for the Royals are Barwell on Tuesday evening before the Royals play their final pre season game away at Belper on Saturday and the Royals manager is facing a selection headache. "As it stands Iv got a good idea what 8 of my starting 11 will be for the Spalding game but then it becomes a struggle as so many have done well but its a fact that some are going to miss out and I have to make that decision fairly soon. Iv had 5 players missing Saturday who would all be in with a shout of starting against Spalding so at the minute it is causing me a few nice headaches."

Kick Off On Tuesday is 7.45pm
