Sutton welcome Loughborough Dynamo to Coles Lane in the hope of rediscovering some form and banishing the sorry defeat to neighbours Boldmere the previous week.
Loughborough lie in 10th position after 23 games with 33 points where as Sutton sit just three places behind in 13th with 26 points after the same number of games.
Sutton’s main problem in recent months has been scoring goals. With only 3 in their last 8 games in all competitions, and 2 of those against Yaxley who have the worst defence in the league, it’s easy to see why they are now looking over their shoulders. Especially as they are just 4 points above the relegation dog fight.
Loughborough Dynamo are based in Leicestershire and play at the Nanpantan Sports Ground. They are nicknamed the Moes and were founded in 1955.
The club was established by pupils from Loughborough Grammar school who were rebelling against the school’s rugby only policy and secretly formed a football team.
The Moes took their name from Dynamo Moscow who had recently visited England to play Wolverhampton Wanderers. They play in a gold and black home strip (taken from Wolverhampton Wanderers), and a green and white away strip
Last time we met Loughborough Dynamo it was at the start of the season, so not that long ago.
We lost 1-0 in a hard-fought game, a game in which Sutton had the better chances but got nothing due to poor finishing on the day.
Loughborough are also struggling for form at present with no wins in their last seven games, it’s a record they will be looking to expunge this weekend.
Sutton will be looking to their forward players to shoot on sight this Saturday, as goals are desperately needed to get the points on the board and to entertain the crowds.
Hope as many of you can come as possible as we need to continue in a positive manor and gain momentum in the league.
Come on you Royals.
