Ledbury Town Football Club

Preview

Following a postponed home fixture this week against Hinton due to the January frosts getting the better of the pitch at New Street, Ledbury Town, still second in the Herefordshire FA County League Premier Division although seven points behind current title favourites Hartpury University, will finally hope to make a start to their new year this coming Saturday by hosting former league title holders Clee Hill United.

It will be the first home fixture for Ian Merrick’s men in over two months, as they then look to entertain lowly Ewyas Harold on Saturday 29^thJanuary (both games KO 2:00pm).

A 2-1 victory resulted against Clee Hill during a bitterly cold early November affair at the Knowle Sports Ground, when a Ben Febery brace overcame the sole goal for the hosts scored by Steven Preece, with Merrick’s high-flying squad also seeing off Ewyas Harold later the same month as braces from Tom Boyle and James Febery, along with an additional goal from Chris Wickham, secured a comfortable 5-1 win at Ewyas Harold’s ground.
