Even at this stage of the season, Saturday’s game looks like a vitally important one for both sides. Holwell Sports, rather like Town, were reprieved from relegation to Step 7 despite their second-bottom finish in the UCL Division One last season. Just seven wins were achieved by the Leicestershire side, who are jointly managed by Liam Wild and Maguel De’souza. Holwell were victors over Town at the start of August and currently sit in 22nd place in the table having won 4 drawn 3 and lost 15. Clearly Town will want to make amends for the August defeat in a bid to start climbing the table again and our visitors on Saturday will want to gain another win to lift themselves out of the drop zone. Start of November? Big game? You bet.
