Match Preview:
It's now or never for The Millers with just three league games to play and it maybe that they will need to win all three to avoid finishing in the bottom four. One game at a time and Kevin Lisbie and his team first have to ensure three points from todays'game. After back to back wins against St Albans City and Ramsgate they suffered a 2-1 defeat at home to local rivals Cray Wanderers on Easter Monday. Hashtag bounced back from a 7-0 defeat away at Dartford by beating Cheshunt 2-1 at home last time out.
Our Opponents:
Hashtag currently sit in 19th place on 38 points from 39 games one point and one place above the Millers. They have recently announced that they have applied for voluntary relegation although if they do finish in the bottom four that would be a consequence in any case.
