Weymouth Football Club’s Senior Men’s team have a break from the National League South competition this weekend when the Terras visit Weston Super Mare for an FA Trophy tie.
The Terras have already travelled to the Woodspring Stadium this season back on Bonfire Night and returned with a share of the National League South Points following a 1-all draw.
The Seagulls sit proudly on top of the league table, winning 10 of their 16 games, drawing 4 and suffering only 2 defeats, so if the Terras can repeat their earlier season result and force a replay at the Bob Lewis Stadium, then they could have a chance of progressing into the next round draw, but it is a big ask.
It’s top versus 4th of the Southern Premier League Table at the Avenue Stadium, where Dorchester Men host league leaders Merthyr Town on Saturday.
The Welshmen’s away record reads Played 5, won 4, Lost 1, while the Magpie’s home record reads Played 7, Won 5, Drawn 1 and Lost 1, so it’s all to play for, and it would be a brave man to predict the outcome of this match.
