Since Wharfedale joined us in N2N, Otley have won 3 out of the 4 fixtures, doing the double over them last season. Many Cross Greeners are still wondering how we came away with a win on our last trip to Thresfield after spending so much time on the defensive - same way we beat Huddersfield two weeks ago!
Wharfedale have only lost one game this season, last week against Hinckley, so this is going to a toughie. Nevertheless Otley are putting out a strong side and will be looking to upset the applecart. As ever a big crowd is expected for this local derby, 3 o’clock kick off, so an early arrival at the ground is highly recommended. A great chance to meet up with old comrades and friends, which may be forgotten for the duration of the game, but will be renewed in the bar come the final whistle.
There is no game at Cross Green today, everything is going up to Thresfield. Will anybody be left in Otley?
