BELPER Town will set out to reach their second cup final of the season as they travel to Skelmersdale United in the semi-final of the UniBond President's Cup tomorrow.

Having already secured a place in the Derbyshire Senior Cup final at Pride Park Stadium on April 20, Andy Carney's side will visit Stormy Corner looking to book a place against AFC Fylde or Stamford in the final.

"I suppose the break from the league may do us some good," said Carney.

"We have had Skelmersdale watched a couple of times and they're very good going forward.

"Maybe the pressure of promotion has got to a few of the lads lately because we have had some bad results.

"Against Shepshed Dynamo on Tuesday night, though, I thought we were back to our best.

"They had only one shot on goal and they scored from that.

"It was an 18-yard volley that screamed past Adam Ogden and into the back of the net. There is little that you can do to defend those kind of goals.

"We go into tomorrow's game with no pressure, which will make a nice change."

Experienced defender Mark Barnard made a return to the side for the midweek draw with Shepshed and Carney was pleased to have him back in the side.

Barnard, the former Alfreton Town defender, had an operation last summer to repair cruciate knee ligament damage.

He had been thinking about joining Mark Atkins on the management team at Matlock Town but was talked out of that.
