Potters Bar (A) - 30th March 2024

By Josh Cole

After the vital away win on Tuesday, we look to continue our good form with another away trip to Hertfordshire, this time to Potters Bar for matchday #37!

Last time out on that very wet Tuesday night we secured a brilliant 1-0 away win against Cheshunt. Read the full match report by clicking here.

Supporters should note that there will be a 10am pitch inspection on Saturday morning to deem if the pitch is playable.

OPPONENTS' SEASON SO FAR:

Potters Bar started the season as an ‘obvious’ candidate to go down, as they went six games without gaining a point, which included the ‘Gate’s victory at Hartsdown Park 2-1. After that loss to us, they kicked into gear, going seven unbeaten which included five draws and two wins. The unbeaten run came to an end away at league leaders Hornchurch but that didn’t dampen the Bar’s spirits as they went a further five games unbeaten, winning four and drawing once. An away loss to promotion challengers Billericay and a 5-0 smashing of Hashtag United solidified the Scholars in mid table. Unable to recapture their form from the unbeaten runs, they then lost two on the trot to Lewes and Horsham, both tough away trips. After those two losses, the team were on fine form going nine unbeaten which saw six wins and three draws before their last result, a loss to Dulwich Hamlet at home. Potters Bar sit 13th on 48 points from just 33 games, the joint lowest amount of games played in the league.
