TREVOR Senior is bracing his Bees’ squad for the visit of Wessex League Division One outfit East Cowes Victoria to St Mary’s Field on Saturday in the second qualifying round of the FA Vase (3pm).

Gary Bulman and goalkeeper Ashley Weeks are unavailable but Senior is hoping a hand injury to stopper Jamie Fry clears up in time for the encounter, while Chris Senior is set to return.

The Bees’ chief said: “The draw has been quite kind to us on paper but you don’t play on paper.

“They are third from bottom in Division One of the Wessex League so we just have to make the most of it really and make sure we get a win.”
