Match Preview

On Thursday evening, The Brewers play Armthorpe Welfare in the penultimate game of our NCEL premier campaign. On Wednesday, Handsworth Parramore’s game at Pontefract Collieries was postponed due to vandalism, so a victory will give us the NCEL title and a historic promotion.

It is very tight for The Wellie at the bottom of the table, but they still need something from the game and a trip to Garforth Town on Saturday. They are currently in 17th place in the table with 39 points from 40 games played, just 2 points out of the relegation zone. Their away form has brought them 4 wins and 4 draws from their 19 games played. Their leading goalscorer is Stuart Preston with 12 goals in all competitions. On Tuesday evening, they lost 4-0 at Liversedge, but that is only their 3rd loss in the last 8 NCEL league games. One of those losses was a 5-0 defeat at Handsworth Parramore. In the away league game at Armthorpe back in September The Brewers drew 2-2 with goals from Nick Black and Matt Heath in front of a crowd of 90.

I will predict a 2-0 Brewers victory so we can enjoy Saturdays last game of the season. Thank you for your magnificent support of The Brewers this season. Just £3 for adult admission, so bring a friend
