Help academy manager Andy Awford celebrate his birthday tonight when he takes a young Hatters XI to United Counties League side Potton United – where Town season ticket holders can get half-price entry!
Coming off the back of their 2-2 draw at Hitchin Town – where Connor Tomlinson and Jack James brought the game level after going two goals down – and the 5-0 win over the LTFC Cedars side, Awford's team will be hoping to build up some momentum going into the new season.
Tonight's match at The Hollow will kick-off at 7:45pm, with United's most recent pre-season game ending in a 2-0 defeat to Evo-Stik Southern Premier Division side St Neots Town.
Any Hatters fans who show their season tickets at the gate on the night will receive 50 per cent off their ticket for the game – meaning adults will pay just £2.50 and junior season ticket holders £1.50.
The address for the game this evening is: The Hollow, Biggleswade Road, Potton, Beds.
Tonight's squad for the game is as follows: Tiernan Parker, Jack James, Joe Mead, Ciaren Jones, Toby Byron, Corey Panter, Kavan Cotter, Jake Peck, Kitan Sorunke, Drew Richardson, Scott Belgrove, Connor Tomlinson, Michael Shamalo, Josh Neufville, Callum Stead, Arthur Read and two trialists.
On Saturday 22nd July the next test will come at Evo-Stik League Southern Division One Central club Kempston Rovers, before two visits to Creasey Park, Dunstable.
Dunstable Town will be the hosts on Tuesday 25th July, before we visit their groundsharers AFC Dunstable on Friday July 28th in the Beds FA Premier Cup.
