Quakers looking to bounce back against Buxton
By Ray Simpson
First of two home games this week
Quakers are looking to recover from two away defeats when Buxton come to Blackwell Meadows on Tuesday night.
Quakers have lost to Leamington and Boston in their last two away matches, but now they’re looking for their ninth home win of the season.
And they're also looking for revenge after losing 2-1 to Buxton earlier in the season.
