Quakers looking to build on last week's win

Tommy Wright takes his side to Southport

We head to Southport on Saturday looking to build on last Saturday’s victory.

We pulled off an excellent 3-0 win last week to beat Telford, and now we’re looking for our second away win of the season and point us towards the top half of the table.

Manager Tommy Wright has at least one selection poser, with Reece Styche back from international duty

Southport are without a home win this season in four attempts, and were within minutes of their first victory in their last home game when they led Spennymoor, but were pegged back in the last minute.

Saturday’s game will be covered live on Darlo Fans Radio, Twitter and the official website, with interviews afterwards.

 

Team news: Reece Styche is available again after Gibraltar duty, Terry Galbraith, Simon Ainge and David Syers will all have late fitness tests.
