The Iron travel to Gloucester City for their final league game of the season on Saturday (3pm kick-off).
After securing a second place finish and winning the Lincolnshire Senior Cup on Wednesday night, the Iron will be hoping to build on our 5-1 victory over Blyth Spartans on home soil last time out in the league.
The reverse fixture against Gloucester City was a comfortable 2-0 victory at the Attis Arena. Jacob Butterfield opened the score in the 18th minute with a fantastic long range effort hit with power. Danny Whitehall got himself on the scoresheet, six minutes after the interval with a penalty and the Iron saw the game out from there.
For a game that either team has nothing to play for in the league, both sides will be playing for pride on Saturday with the Iron having a chance to continue their momentum for the play-offs.
