Whittlesey are lying in wait for the table-toppers

-

Runaway Peterborou­gh Premier Division leaders Moulton Harrox will find their unbeaten record under serious threat on Saturday.

Harrox are at Whittlesey Athletic, a club who are traditiona­lly strong at their Feldale Field base.

But Harrox have seen off all-comers so far and travel with the confidence of a team with 14 wins from 15 matches and a 10-point cushion at the top.

Harrox and Whittlesey both made county cup progress against Premier Division rivals last weekend with Harrox requiring extra time to see off Sutton Bridge United 4-1 in the Lincs Junior Cup and two Jack Carter goals helping Whittlesey to a 3-1 win over Tydd in the Cambs Cup.

Second-placed Netherton host third-placed Holbeach Reserves in the other big game of the day.

Netherton were disappoint­ed with their 2-2 draw at ICA Sports last weekend even though they fought back from 2-0 down to equalise in the final minute through Ritchie Baines.

Tom Randall also scored for the reigning champions with Joe Dobson on target twice for ICA.

Holbeach beat Peterborou­gh Sports Developmen­t 2-1 last weekend in a fiesty game which saw Sports player Ethan Atkins sent off.

Fourth-placed Sports are at Leveringto­n on Saturday when fifth-placed Thorney host bottom club Peterborou­gh Polonia.

Thorney secured a cracking 3-0 Cambs Cup win against Great Shelford last Saturday thanks to goals from Dan Fountain, Ondre Odain and John Yambasu. Gerard Evans was however sent off in a game that ended 10-a-side.
