York Road

Maidenhead receive ground grading

Maidenhead United have received a welcome boost with news that their York Road ground has received a B grade from the Football Conference chiefs.

This means that the Magpies will be playing in the Blue Square South next season providing of course they remain in the safety of lower mid-table.

Saturday's clash with the Dorset Magpies of Dorchester presents a great opportunity to put more distance between United and the relegation places.

Dorchester, who have struggled all season, are likely to field former fan favourite Chico Ramos in goal whilst Chris Tardif is set to make his debut for Maidenhead at the opposite end following his move from Basingstoke Town in midweek.

Manny Williams, Dominic Sterling and Lee Newman are also in with a chance of a start having recovered from injury to train on Thursday night.
