THE high-flying Robins are looking to extend their lead at the top of the Northern Counties East League premier division in two crucial ties over the next few days.

Selby Town face Eastwood at home tomorrow and need to avoid complacency to maintain their lofty position.

Assistant manager Les Kerr has warned the side to keep control at the top - and at the back.

"Recently all the teams have been taking points off each other, there have been some upsets, and that means now every game is a really big game for us," he said.

"Eastwood have got three good forward lads, a really good front-line, so the heat is going to be on our lads at the back.

"As ever, the defence needs to be strong for us to have a chance."

He said manager Bob Lyon would have a full squad to pick from apart from long-term injured duo Andy Cygan and Russ Barley.

"Eastwood - and Ossett next week - are vital ties for us, now every game's a big one."
