A preview into Saturday’s preseason fixture against Tividale, from Jack Blenkiron.

The Royals are back on their travels this weekend, for their sixth game of the preseason campaign, after falling 2-0 to Tamworth at The Central Ground, on Tuesday. Goals from Beswick and Creaney provided Tamworth with a deserved win, despite an efforted performance from Neil’s team in extremely hot conditions. We look to return to winning ways in tomorrow’s game, where The Royals travel to

An insight on The Lambs…

Tividale are managed by Dave King, who’s team stormed the West Midlands League Premier Division last season, finishing on 91 points and a +101-goal difference, only losing five times. The Dale have experienced a mixed preseason, winning their first three games against Cadbury Athletic, Bewdley Town and Tipton Town, yet losing their last two games to Atherstone Town, 2-0, and Pershore Town, 4-2. Saturday’s game is the penultimate of their preseason, leading up to the opening game of the MFL Premier on the 3rd August.

Last meeting between Tividale and The Royals…

The last time The Royals visited The Beeches, we left victorious, winning 3-0 in the first round of the Walsall Senior Cup.

An overview of preseason so far…

Past the halfway point of preseason now, the build-up to the opening fixture against Spalding United has been extremely positive, as despite not every result ending in our favour, the style of play is positive and effective, and The Royals will look to be a force next season.

One to look out for…

A player to keep an eye out for is Daniel Smith, the striker is Tividale’s top goal scorer for the last three seasons, when he arrived, scoring 64 goals in 119 games, averaging at a goal every other game for The Dale, which is a fantastic return from a forward plucked from Sunday League football.

Match information…

Kick Off is at 3:00 at The Beeches Ground, we hope to see you there!
