ROUND-UP: Huge game at Holbeach United as title challengers Wisbech are in town, Deeping stroll to derby success, Peterborough Sports have honour in defeat, Spalding smashed in Sheffield
A win for Wisbech would see them close the gap on leaders Yaxley to a point and the Fenmen would have a game in hand. Holbeach’s own title challenge probably ended with defeat at Eynesbury at the weekend, but they will still have a huge say in who finishes top as they also host third-placed Newport Pagnell on Saturday (April 28).
Deeping Rangers eased to a 4-0 win at Peterborough Northern Star in the Premier Division last night (April 24) with goals from Henry Dunn, Scott Coupland, Scott Mooney and former Star defender Johnny Clay.
