Corby v Posh Sports

According to NF A website
Corby defeated Posh Sports 3-0 to reach the final. If we can get past the NTFC U23 team, It should lead to another enjoyable match at Sixfields.

A strong mid-table finish and victory over Corby at Sixfields to clinch back-to-back Hillier Cup wins would be a successful season. I'm sure the NFA will do their best to schedule the final three days before their first play-off match. :hehe:

We could possibly have our very first and last games of the season against Corby. And hopefully the same outcome.

There has been a suggestion that the final may be played before the end of the season, but that's not confirmed.
