Grimsby head for Bracebridge Heath tomorrow, intent on gaining the points that will see them climb the Readers Lincolnshire ECB Premier League table.
Following last weekend’s washout, the forecast is set fair for a full programme with Boston defending their second place against not only Grimsby but also Market Deeping and Louth, both of whom are hot on their heels.
With Bracebridge now well out in front, Grimsby will have their work cut out to beat the leaders who have yet to lose a game this season but Richard Antcliffe’s side will go into the game with confidence following some good performances in the first half of the season.
All teams know there are no easy games this season and Boston could find this out when they travel to Hartsholme who have shown marked improvement in the past few weeks. Deeping, meanwhile, entertain Woodhall Spa who are looking to Fawad Alam to help them improve on their 11th place.
Louth are at home to Sleaford who are pushing for a place in the top half, having picked up the pace following a disastrous start to the year.
Last year’s champions Bourne have made it up to sixth and could go higher if they beat bottom side Nettleham while Lindum have their first game under new skipper Harry Dunn when they take on Skegness at St Giles Avenue, both teams languishing in the lower reaches of the table with Lindum in 10th but only seven points and two places behind their opponents.
