HOW TO GET TO THE ZEECO STADIUM
The postcode for the Zeeco Stadium is PE9 1US. This will not be in most Sat-Navs, so please use PE9 4QN. These instructions avoid the town centre, which is very busy on Saturday. They are also for coaches to avoid the very narrow road through Little Casterton, although this route is suitable for cars.
From the North using the A1. Leave the A1 at the B1081 exit signposted Stamford. Continue down the slip road and into Great Casterton. Turn left (signposted Ryhall) for about 2.5 miles. At the end of the road, turn right and immediately right again. Continue for about 1.5 miles, and the ground is on the right.
THE OPPOSITION
Stamford are currently bottom of the league, having failed to pick up the results they needed in their opening fixtures. However, Graham Drury’s side managed a 3-1 away win against Stourbridge in their recent Southern League Central fixture. His side will be aiming to secure a win against the Pirates on Saturday to keep their hopes of avoiding relegation alive.
Kai Sanchez-Tonge is the club’s top goal scorer this season, with five goals in all competitions. He’ll remain a key threat for Stamford in Saturday’s fixture.
