| With the league campaign having
steadied and then faltered again, Spartak this weekend turn their attentions back to,
what has been so far, their successful cup campaign.
Still involved in all three cups with two quarter finals and a
semi-final looming, they hope to make further progress in at least one
of these and crown themselves in something even vaguely approaching
glory this season. As opposed to ignominy which is more the norm for a
Spartak season.
The opposition this week are the Division Two
leaders and after a very disappointing performance against them earlier in the
season, Spartak will hope to make amends here.
Of course with Christmas so close and the smell of cooked turkey
almost imaginable over the chemical haze at Bayer, the Spartak lads mind's may not be
fully on the job.
Which may or may not be a good
thing, we shall see. |
