Games Running Out For Yellows

 HUCKNALL TOWN V DEEPING RANGERS

UCL PREMIER NORTH 

SATURDAY 13TH JANUARY 2024 3 PM KO

MATCH PREVIEW

Hucknall's need to start winning games in a bid to avoid finishing bottom has now become desperate with the gap between themselves and Pinchbeck 5 points with only the one game in hand on the second bottom team.

With only a single win and 4 draws in 20 games Town just have 14 games in which to mount a survival charge.

Last weeks performance at play off chasing Skegness again deserved a reward but again was thwarted by a late goal.

Deeping Rangers visit the RM Stadium tomorrow having inflicted a 6 nil defeat on the Yellows back in September.

Rangers will be looking to win this fixture to boost their own play off hopes having suffered a recent slump in form in their last 3 fixtures losing 3 1 at home to Pinchbeck and also drawing away at struggling Wisbech. The poor form continued with a home defeat inflicted by Boston last Saturday.

 Ranger's league record reads

Played 20 winning 7 drawing 7 and losing 6 with a GD of plus 13 to lie in 8th spot.

Home wins have come against Kimberley MW, ourselves, AFC Mansfield, 

Away wins have come against Pinchbeck, AFC Mansfield, Sleaford Town, and Kimberley MW.

Draws have come against Heanor town, Boston Town, Eastwood CFC, Skegness Town, Newark and Sherwood, Wisbech.

Defeats have come against Sherwood away, Melton town home, Loughborough Students away, Belper United away, Pinchbeck home and Boston Town home.

In the Cup Competitios:

FA Cup lost to Ashby Ivanhoe at home

FA Vase lost to Loughborough Students home

League cup lost to Coventry United home 

County Cup lost on penalties to Barton Town home

Hucknall will be looking to capitalise on Ranger's recent poor form whilst the visitors will be looking to get back on track.

An interesting game awaits.

Hucknall have signed a new striker Nick Swan but Louis Czerwak has left for Belper United and I wish him well at his new club.
