HOW TO GET TO CREASEY PARK

This is one of the shorter away days on the fixture list, with Creasey Park located close to the M1. From the M1, supporters should exit at Junction 11A towards the A5. The postcode for your SatNav is LU6 1BB, so follow this until you reach Creasey Park Drive.

Parking at Creasey Park is free of charge, including the main car park at the front of the venue. If this is full, you can use the overflow car park next door.

THE OPPOSITION

We faced AFC Dunstable three times last season, beating them twice in the league and losing 2-0 to them in the aforementioned semi-final.

James Townsend’s side are currently 14th in the Southern League Division One Central, winning one, drawing four and losing three in their first eight matches.

After beating us in the semi-final of the Bedfordshire Senior Challenge Cup last season, they went on to beat Barton Rovers 3-2 in the final at Kenilworth Road. In fact, they have reached the final of this competition two years in a row and will be keen to retain their title in 2026.
