GOOD AFTERNOON AND A WARM WELCOME TO OUR VISITORS HARBOROUGH TOWN WHO ARE FIRST TIME VISITORS TO THE PREMIER PLUS STADIUM

Our two sides met for the first time at Harborough in October when it finished honours even at a goal apiece. Like us, Harborough are in their debut season in the Northern League Midlands Division but unlike us who arrived here on transfer, our visitors won their way to Step Four for the first time in their brief history by winning the United Counties League Premier Division South championship last season.
