Following the departure of top scorers Adam Shaw to Coventry United and Sam Lockley to Rugby Town, Rugby Borough manager Darran Tank remains upbeat ahead of Saturday’s County Vase game against Darlaston Town, at the Paycare Ground with a 1.45pm kick-off.

He said: “It’s a blow to lose two players but their goal scoring records speak for themselves, so there was always going to be interest from other clubs.”
