Newly-promoted Ludlow are aiming to continue an impressive start to life in the higher division against a Stoke team who have picked up bonus point wins in their opening two matches.

Jones admitted the focus is very much on their own performance, after following up an opening day draw with Newbold by beating Old Halesonians last weekend.

He said: “It has been a very encouraging start. If I am being honest, I don’t know a huge amount about Stoke, other than they have picked up two bonus point wins in the first two games.

“We just have to concentrate on ourselves. I’m confident if we get our own game right there are not many teams who will be able to cope with us on home turf.”

Jones has taken heart in the mentality of his team, who have fought back to claim a result despite trailing in both matches so far.
