Market Drayton Town head off to South Yorkshire tomorrow afternoon to face Stocksbridge PS in an Evo-Stik NPL Division 1S fixture.

Drayton will be looking to build on the win and impressive performance against Newcastle Town in midweek. That morale-boosting victory saw Drayton move off the bottom of the league and record the first 3-pointer of the season. Goals have been hard to come by so the five scored was very welcome in a victory that had been coming. The defence has been pretty solid all season and indeed if we hadn't conceded those two late goals on Tuesday night our goal difference would have been zero.

Our hosts tomorrow afternoon have had a great start to the season and currently lie in fifth place. Their recent results have been impressive with a 3-0 victory at Belper Town followed by a 2-2 draw versus Alvechurch, a 4-3 home win over Leek Town and an amazing 9-1 away at Peterborough Sports last time out. Drayton will be tested defensively as they are scoring goals for fun at the moment.

A safe journey to our travelling contingent and we hope to get a win to keep up the momentum going into a couple of home matches next week.

Play up Drayton !

Sat 23rd Sep Stocksbridge Park Steels v Drayton @ Look Local Stadium, Stocksbridge k/o 15:00
