Market Drayton Town are on the road tomorrow with a Boxing Day visit to Romulus

Drayton are looking to put the last few disappointing results behind them and get back that winning feeling. Three consecutive league defeats sees us down in 19th place with 20 points from 23 matches. This is the last match of the calendar year and over the course of the 12 months we have finished in our highest ever league position and regained the Shropshire Premier Cup so a win at the Roms tomorrow would be a fitting end to the year and help propel us up the table as we head to 2017.

The Roms stand in our way and they have had a mixed bag of results lately with goals aplenty. Last time out they lost 4-2 at Belper whilst the previous 3 matches were all played at home with a 4-2 win over Stamford, a 5-1 thrashing of Loughborough Dynamo and a 1-4 reverse against Bedworth United. Prior to this they lost 5-0 at Witton Albion so they can score goals freely as well as concede. They currently lie in 11th place with 31 points from their 22 matches.

For those travelling down to the match, have a safe journey and enjoy the rest of your Christmas. Also please note this has an earlier-than-usual kick-off time.

Sat 26th December... Romulus v Drayton @ Coles Lane, Sutton Coldfield k/o 13:00
