Match Preview

After a fourth league loss in a row, The Royals take the short trip to Coleshill in the hope of points to kickstart the season.

Coleshill Town Football Club are from Coleshill in Warwickshire, and were founded in 1894 although their first ever recorded game was in November 1885 against Acocks Green. They were awarded a certificate by the FA in 1994 for recognition of 100 years in the Football Association although matches prior to this were either friendly or challenge matches. They currently play in the Southern League Division One Central.

Coleshill Town FC play at the Pack Meadow Stadium in Coleshill, a stadium which holds 2070 supporters. Coleshill have had a few nicknames in the past but the most recent is ‘The Colemen’ or ‘The Colts'. Their home kit is a white and blue shirt, blue shorts and blue socks, and their away kit is all red, red shirt, shorts and socks.

The last time we played Coleshill Town FC was last season in the league, where we lost 3-0 away and at home. Coleshill have started the season well and sit third in the league, winning 3 and only losing to top of the table Sporting Khalsa. They will be keen to win on Monday to put themselves on track for promotion.

Let’s hope for a great day against our local rivals, one of the few we have in this league.
