Paul Collicutt, the manager of Bishop’s Cleeve, is known for his superstitions, including getting a haircut before crucial matches. As the team prepares to make history by reaching the play-off final, they face a semi-final against Malvern Town at Kayte Lane. Malvern Town, led by Collicutt’s close ally, Steve Cleal, are coming into the match on the back of an 18-game unbeaten run, with their top scorer, Jack Watts, having previously played under Collicutt.
The backroom staff includes notable figures such as Freddy Ward, Tommy Callinan, and Matt Jeynes. With the whole village behind them, Cleeve aims to secure a spot in the final and potentially earn promotion.
Despite facing some fitness challenges, the team boasts skilled players like James Harding, Ben McLean, and Aaron Evans-Harriott. The support of the village is crucial for their success in the upcoming match.
