Scunthorpe United can confirm that, as part of the team’s pre-season preparations, the side will visit Cleethorpes Town on Saturday, July 12th, 2pm kick-off.
In a repeat of last season’s Lincolnshire Senior Cup final, the Iron will head to the Linden Club in mid-July to take on the Owls once more.
United triumphed to retain the county’s senior competition back in March at Lincoln City’s LNER Stadium, overhauling the side on penalties following a 3-3 draw in normal time, which saw Mark Beck and Carlton Ubaezuonu all find the net before Maison Campbell proved to be the hero from spot kicks as the Iron won 3-0 to lift the trophy for the second consecutive year.
Cleethorpes, meanwhile, are preparing for life in a higher division themselves after emerging as Champions in the Northern Premier League East Division following a massively successful campaign last time out. They will be looking to continue their momentum into this year as they compete in the Northern Premier League Premier Division.
Amongst the team for the Owls is Aaron Braithwaite, who was on dual registration with both sides last season, along with former academy products Dan Gallimore and Curtis Bateson.
Adults will be £12 for the game, with concessions £7 and under-16s £5.
As soon as we have a link to purchase tickets, and any other pre-season fixtures confirmed, we will announce.
