PREVIEW: Peterborough Sports target three more wins
Sports are 16th in a 22-team league, but only one team is relegated this season. The city side’s biggest problem is the games in hand most of their rivals possess, but Dean is confident his side will steer clear of trouble.
Sports are at Carlton tomorrow (March 10) before hosting Loughborough Dynamo at PSL on Tuesday (March 13). Loughborough were due at Sports last Saturday, but snow forced a postponement

“Three wins would probably be enough. There are a lot of teams who have to get past us and some of them will be facing a very hectic schedule.
“Everyone has tough games left, but we’ve played a lot of the top sides twice so I’m confident we will be okay.”
Top centre-half Richard Jones is suspended tomorrow, but will be back for the Loughborough game when Sports will chase a fifth successive home win. Key defender Ollie Medwynter is also absent tomorrow.
