Pete Stiles is willing the weather to relent so that Fareham Town can attempt to complete a Wessex Premier Division double over Baffins Milton Rovers at Cams Alders (3pm).

The appalling wet weather has disrupted both clubs in recent weeks, causing a series of postponements.

Baffins have been hardest hit - having not played a home league game since the end of October and having only played one Wessex game since November 23.

Stiles is hoping for a repeat of his men’s early August win at Baffins when Curt Robbins bagged a double.

‘We beat them 3-2 at their place in one of the first games of the season,' he recalled.

'To be honest we scored in the final minute to nick a game that could have gone either way.

'They will be all out for revenge.

'Games against Baffins are always tough and hopefully our players won't have had too much Christmas pudding.
