Martyrs Take On Kings At Home In League Clash

Merthyr Town face Kings Langley this Saturday in their penultimate home match of 2017-18  at the Loadlok Community Stadium (3pm).

Manager Gavin Williams and his team are aiming to bounce back in style after losing their last two home matches, against Frome and Chesham by the odd goal, 4-3 and 3-2.

Former Cardiff City trainee Jaye Bowen returns to the squad after being unavailable due to work commitments.

Centre-forward Ryan Prosser scored his second goal of the season in midweek and will be pushing for a starting place.

Kings Langley are 21st position in the EvoStik Southern League table and drew their last game at Biggleswade 1-1. They have won three of their 21 away games and came from behind twice to rescue a point in the reverse fixture earlier this season.

The match is more remembered for the match when goalkeeper Cameron Clarke went to hospital after suffering an injury. Cameron, his family and Merthyr Town were grateful for the support from Kings Langley staff.

Merthyr Town squad: Ed Hewitson, Adam Davies, Harry Franklin, Scott Tancock, Matthew Harris, Kyle Patten, Jarrad Wright, Ashley Evans, Craig Reddy, Jaye Bowen, Corey Jenkins, Kerry Morgan, Ian Traylor, Owain Jones, Ryan Prosser, Lee Price.

The match kicks off at 3pm. Admisison is £10 adults, £8 for over 65s and £1 under 16s.

Voting slips for the player of the year will be available at the game. After such a turbulent season it’s going to be a tough choice.

There is a Soul Night in the Red Flag Bar after the match.
