WE make the short journey over to the Big Help Stadium to face Southport FC on this Bank Holiday Monday.

The Magpies secured their first competitive win of the 2023/24 season on Saturday, comprehensively beating King’s Lynn Town 3-1 at Victory Park.

Southport haven’t gotten off to a brilliant start this season and find themselves at the bottom of the National League North table after the opening five games.

Port secured their first point of the campaign on Saturday, a 0-0 away draw at Brackley Town.

The hosts recently parted ways with manager Liam Watson, a good friend of our boss Andy Preece but Monday is likely to reunite us with another familiar face in Marcus Carver, who joined Southport on loan for the second time in the summer.

Our last two games against Southport have ended in a 2-1 defeat, our last win against the hosts was in March 2022 - a last gasp winner from Ollie Shenton.
