Tomorrow night the Badgers face Staveley Miners Welfare Reserves in the Quarter Final of the Floodlit Cup. It’s a crucial game for Retford after crashing out of the Buckingham Insurance Cup last week, when Sherwood Colliery was the first team to beat the Badgers since November
Tomorrow night the Badgers will hopefully travel to Debdale Park to face Sherwood Colliery Reserves in the Buckingham Insurance Challenge Cup Quarter Finals. I say hopefully because the game may not go ahead due to the extreme weather conditions that have occurred all over England these last few days. The weather has also continued to not improve leaving a doubt on the game. All will be decided by a pitch inspection tomorrow, so make sure to keep a look out on Twitter and Facebook for updates on whether the game will go ahead.
This Saturday the Badgers travel to Scunthorpe to face worthy opponents Crowle Colts. This will be our first time facing Crowle. The Colts have a history of winning trophies and also many name changes.
With the hype around this game it wasn’t surprising that the attendance was a high of 231. This included ground-hoppers that were willing to make over two hour journeys so they could make it to Cannon Park on a blustery Saturday afternoon for a game that was promising to be one to remember.
