OVERVIEW

BLUES U23s will be looking to get their first win of the season this weekend as they host Stanway Pegasus at the Watson & Hillhouse Stadium on Saturday, writes Craig Cooper.

In midweek they went down 6-0 on home soil to top of the league Framlingham Town.

Stanway have won one, drawn one and lost two of the opening two games and currently sit in 13th position in the league.

After playing well in their first four league games, the team were beaten by a very good Framlingham side on Tuesday, who will surely be in the top five, at the very least, at the end of the campaign.
