Good Afternoon And A Warm Welcome To The Premier Plus Stadium To Our Final Visitors Of The League Season

This should have been our final home match of our first season in the Northern Premier League but because we finished in eighteenth place in the league table, we are obliged to win a home play-off match next Saturday if we are to compete at Step Four next season, although at this stage we do not know who we shall be entertaining from Step Five.

Back to out visitors who are making their first ever visit to the Premier Plus Stadium. Our two sides have previously met only once and that was at Loughborough in November when we plotted our own downfall in a 3-1 defeat that saw us concede a penalty kick in each half (duly converted). Half time substitute Joe Rider did his best to get us back in the game with a second half goal that made the score 2-1 to our hosts but the second penalty proved to be a clear decider on the day. Loughborough are currently comfortably placed in midtable where they will finish possibly one place higher than last season, although two seasons ago in the abandoned season they were actually second in the league table after just eight matches. They are the higher graded of the two sides based in their town with the Loughborough University Students playing in the United Counties League.

This season opened badly for our visitors when in the FA Cup Extra Preliminary Round played the Saturday before the season began, they suffered an early exit beaten 2-0 at the seaside by Step Five Skegness Town who play in the United Counties League Premier Division North. However, they did much better in the FA Trophy beating Corby Town 3-1 in the first qualifying round, then travelling to NPL Division One East side Long Eaton to win 4-2 but in the third qualifying round they were beaten at home by the odd goal in three by Worksop Town who have just recently been crowned champions of the NPL Division One East. They also recorded a notable 3-1 home victory over promoted Stamford back in November,
