PDFL round-up: Sutton Bridge beaten as Holbeach Reserves take derby spoils

Holbeach United Reserves took the derby bragging rights in the ChromaSport PDFL Premier Division on Saturday as they saw off Sutton Bridge United 3-1 at Carter’s Park on Saturday.

Luke Nicholson, John Smith and Jordan Keeble (pen) earned the Tigers all three points, with Craig Pack hitting back for Bridge.

Holbeach and Sutton Bridge, who both have just two league games left to play this season, are fifth and 13th as a result.

Down in Division One, Crowland Town suffered a 3-2 home reverse against Oundle Town at Snowden Field. Juliano Resta and Ashley Pratt got the Crowland goals, but they were ultimately outgunned.
