Fear of the unknown will not be a factor in Versatile Wanganui City's Federation Cup quarter-final home clash with Club Hastings Western Rangers at Wembley Park on Saturday.
City co-coach Anthony Bell has done his homework on the side they have yet to meet and is pleased with the results. It may be a mute point, however, with the game in doubt because of the wet weather of late.
The football fraternity closed the park this week rather than the Whanganui District Council parks department who usually make the ultimate call.
In any instance Bell has discovered that Rangers play in the Pacific League, a competition he regards as slightly lower than the Federation League that Wanganui City competes in.
"Also Rangers have played 11 Pacific League matches winning one, drawing two and losing eight," Bell said.
