After an eventful three away games it’s back to Bedford Terrace for what promises to be a tough fixture against Park View AFC.

Massive thanks to Match Sponsor Paul Stoker and matchball sponsor MNP electrical (Eddie Dougan). Your support is massively appreciated.

Park View, formally known as Chester le Street United, have carried on their impressive form from last season and currently sit in the playoff positions after playing 15 games. They are two places above the Y&E having played two games more than us.

Park View come in the game on the back of two consecutive away 1-0 wins against Prudhoe and Boldon. They have taken 11 points from their last 6 league games, including 0-0 draws against Redcar Town and Esh Winning. They’ve only lost once this season on their travels in the league, a 1-0 defeat at FC Hartlepool. Which is coincidentally is the Y&E’s only away defeat this season. Players to watch include Nathan Conroy and Charlie Loveday who have bagged 11 goals between them far this season and striker Stephen Siyanbola who is always a handful upfront.

Last season both games ended up as 1-0’wins for the away team. A late late winner back in August 2024 for Park View and a Josh Larkin looping header on 9 minutes in November 2024. Both games saw Josh Marshall red carded. Hopefully none of that this weekend!

The lads will be looking to carry on the second half form from Esh Winning on Wednesday, and make it 4 league wins in a row. Jacko will have plenty of selection headaches after some impressive recent performances from the whole squad.

The Boro are away at Southampton, so if you want your local football fix, get yourself down to Bedford Terrace TS23 4AE. Gates open 2pm. It’s £6 adults, £4 concessions and U16 are free. Cafe open for refreshments and printed match programme on sale as well. Get yourself there to support the mighty Y&E ⚪️🔵🦅
