GOOD

AFTERNOON AND A WARM WELCOME TO THE PREMIER PLUS

STADIUM TO COLESHILL TOWN FOR THEIR THIRD VISIT

This is Coleshill’s third visit to the Town having lost onescheduled trip to the COVID outbreak in 2020/21. In fact,our two clubs also missed two scheduled matches at Coleshill for the same reason. During our two seasons together in the Southern League Central, we met just once here at St Neots when two goals from Joe Neal and a third from ThomasDickens gave our lads a comfortable 3-0 victory. Then in our first season in the Northern Premier League Central in 2022/23 we won 2-1 at home with goals from Trey Charles and Manny Osei but were comprehensively defeated 4-0 at Coleshill. Earlier this season, our trip to Coleshill resulted in a 3-1 victory for our lads with Harvey Williams, Christiam Tavernier (pen), and Kieran Barnes our marksmen. Two weeks ago, our visitors inflicted on league leaders Carlton Town a 2-1 defeat which maintained their slot in the play-offs at that time six points clear of their nearest challengers. Nowthis afternoon our visitors seek their first victory at the Premier Plus Stadium. However, they arrive here in fine form with an unbeaten run of eight games behind them that has seen them climb up the league table and remain undefeated since 3rdFebruary when they fell to a surprise defeat away at Loughborough Students but since then they have been very consistent. In the FA Cup this season Coleshill defeated Worcester Ramblers in their first match but then came up against higher graded Hednesford Town and were soundly beaten.

Previous meetings of our teams:

2019/20 St Neots 3-0 Coleshill (away match not played – COVID)

2020/21 (neither match played – COVID)

2022/23 St Neots 2-1 Coleshill. Coleshill 4-0 St Neots

2022/23 FA Trophy: Coleshill 3-2 St Neots

2025/26 Coleshill 1-3 St Neots
