Newsham attempts to reach landmark

Newsham attempts to reach landmark

Craig Singleton19 Apr 2013 - 11:30

Boston United striker Marc Newsham goes in pursuit of his 30th goal of the season when the Pilgrims visit Histon on Saturday (kick-off 3.00pm).

Newsham has three matches — including the Lincolnshire Senior Shield final — to become the first United player since Gary Jones in 1992 to reach the magical 30-mark in a single season.

His quest begins at the Glassworld Stadium against Dennis Greene’s former club Histon, who have been plunged back into a relegation fight following Colwyn Bay’s sudden resurgence.

The Stutes, who suffered a 6-0 defeat at The Jakemans Stadium earlier in the campaign, looked to have climbed clear of danger but have lost their last three matches.

Greene expects to have a fully-fit squad to choose from for the trip to Cambridgeshire, as the Pilgrims contest their final away league match of the campaign.

Last season’s corresponding fixture ended 3-1 in United’s favour, courtesy of goals from Newsham, Danny Sleath and Jason Lee.

Fancy a flutter? Blue Square Bet accounts have been taken over by Betfair and match odds are available ahead of Saturday’s match at the Glassworld Stadium.
