Tomorrow we welcome Guisborough Town to the Daren Persson Stadium as we take on The Priorymen for our 6 league game of the campaign.
An unbeaten start sees us going into the contest sitting in 3rd place, with no game midweek, Dan and his team have had the lads working hard on the training pitch, looking to fine tune a couple of things after playing out two consecutive draws against Newcastle Benfield and Crook Town.
Our visitors come into the game, sat in 14th place and were in action midweek when they hosted Bishop Auckland at their King George V home, ending up on the losing side as Bishop Auckland won 2-1.
We hope that you can join us at the Daren Persson Stadium to cheer on the lads, for those visiting us for the first time, details of how to find us can be found below.
