BARTESTREE FC v LEAMINGTON HIBS: MATCH PREVIEW...

Bartestree FC v Leamington Hibs: Match Preview…

My first but long overdue visit to Bartestree FC on Saturday afternoon for a Midland League Division 3 game v Leamington Hibs looks like being 90 minutes beneath an umbrella in Herefordshire…



The hosts currently lie 3rd in the league, their first in the Midland League after transferring from the West Midlands League. They have won 4 of 5 league games, losing only their first match at Boldmere by a single goal. Their goal difference is +10, scoring 15 and conceding only 5. Since the Boldmere game they have won two home games, 4-1 v Coventrians and 5-2 v Enville, before winning 1-4 at Continental Star and then 0-2 at Castle Vale Town.

Top scorers overall, including cup competitions is LOUIS MANN with 6 goals, followed by MILES LANGFORD with 4.
LOUIS MANN...

Guests Leamington Hibs lie next to bottom in the league table, with only the pointless Castle Vale below them. They have drawn two of their 5 league matches so far and lost the other 3. Their goal difference is -15, scoring 7 and conceding 22. Oddly, Hibs drew their opening two games, 0-0 at home v Enville then 2-2 v Inkberrow but sadly they lost the next 3 encounters: 2-3 at home v Alcester, 12-0 at FC Stratford and 3-5 at home v Boldmere.

The leading overall scorers for Hibs are AINSLEY FRANCIS with 3, followed by both MIKE JONES & DAN LUCAS with 2.   

Coverage of the game, as long as the weather doesn’t interfere too much will be at
