The new date for the postponed game with Ilkley has been set as Easter Saturday 31st March. The club understands that this may not be convenient for many and has tried unsuccessfully to have the game played later in the season. All Vice-Presidents who booked lunch that day, please contact the club to confirm whether you can attend on Easter Saturday. As all hospitality for the remainder of the season is sold out, if you can’t make Easter Saturday we can carry over the booking to September or arrange a refund if applicable. Hospitality is available to book for the game at https://www.pgrfc.co.uk/shop/hospitality-package-2017-18/

LYMM PREVIEW After another two week rest period Hoppers are set to play yet another crucial game this Saturday when they travel to Lymm who are currently lying in fourth place, Five points behind second placed Hull and twenty points adrift of Hoppers. Hull’s victory at Kirkby Lonsdale last Saturday in their catch up fixture moved them into second place and now just three five point victories behind Hoppers with all the top four contenders for promotion having just five games each remaining. It looks like Lymm will have to beat Hoppers to have any chance of gaining promotion in one form or another this season whilst the visitors will be anxious to keep up their momentum in their drive for promotion at the first attempt. Victory over then second placed Harrogate in Hoppers last outing was looking a comfortable one up until the final few minutes when an obvious knock-on caught the combined official’s blind spots flustering the home side and giving the visitors momentum to grab a valuable losing bonus point which had looked well beyond their reach up and until that turning point. Our hosts this Saturday can boast a comfortable victory over Pocklington on the same day as Hoppers defeat of Harrogate at a venue their opponents this week struggled to overcome just a few weeks previous. The Cheshire side have the meanest defence in the Northern Premier League as things stand averaging just eleven points a game, but conversely have the lowest points total from the top five in the league scoring on average twenty five points per game. Our records show just three meetings between the two clubs, the first back on the 19th of February 1983 when Lymm gave Hoppers a fixture after Solihull couldn’t fulfil the scheduled one. The Cheshire side won that first game on home soil by twenty points to Hoppers fifteen, only for the visitors to gain revenge twenty years ago on the 6th of December 1997 at the same venue when they were victorious by thirty nine points to seventeen. The league game earlier this season provided Preston Grasshoppers a six point victory in a tight game where both sides went into the game with an unbeaten record.
