SADDLERS' boss, Chris Hutchings goes head-to-head against an old friend on Saturday as Colchester United come to town.

"I have known Aidy Boothroyd for a very long time," he said of The U's manager. "In fact, he was my boot boy at Huddersfield Town!

"He won't be resting on his laurels and will want to see his side pushing for the automatic promotion places.

"It'll be a tough game for us. Colchester play to their strengths; they are a big and strong side who will always cause problems and we will have to be ready to deal with that."
