THE MIDLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION
SATURDAY 5th APRIL 2025
SHIFNAL TOWN v NORTHWICH VICTORIA
Vics face another team in the top 5 in their final away match of the season when they face 2nd placed Shifnal Town on Saturday. Shifnal Town were founded in 1964 although there were other clubs with similar names playing in the town since Victorian times. They have had a few ups and downs over the years with ground problems but have moved up the leagues and were promoted to The Midland League Premier Division in 2021.
Shifnal still have a outside chance of overtaking Lichfield City for the automatic promotion place so will be fighting hard for the 3 points to keep up the pressure on their rivals. They are on a run of only one defeat in 10 matches, and that was surprisingly a 4 - 3 loss against relegation threatened Highgate United.
Vics in the meanwhile will be looking to continue their recent good form but will still be without Kieran Hamm and Sam Deering upfront.
This is one of the nearer away fixtures , so why not venture south and cheer the lads on
