Scarborough Athletic Chair Eyeing Playoffs

Boro chair Trevor Bull says finishing in the playoffs would be a great result after a season of turmoil.

Scarborough Athletic are facing a congested end to the season with mid week fixtures piling up in March.

The recent postponement of the match against Hereford for the second time means the two sides will now face each other twice in the last few weeks of the season.

Boro Chair - Trevor Bull - says it's going to be a busy few weeks.

"We've had this situation with Hereford a year or two back as well, so it is it seemed fated that Hereford is the team that we do this with. But it, we've ended up with a situation now that in March, in 10 days, we're gonna be playing them twice home and away, it throws up all sorts of different connotations because between ourselves and Hereford, we're nearly every week We're playing Saturday, Tuesday so I think the, it is been rescheduled. I think it's the 4th of March. So it's not very often as a postponed game to get put back a full two months. "

Trevor Bull says he'd be delighted if the club made the promotion playoffs this year.

After a season of turmoil, with the club playing home games in Bridlington, Boro are currently 6th in the league table.

Trevor says finishing in the playoff zone would be a great achievement.

"Tt would be incredible and to add to the excitement we've got more, we've got two more home games and away games left to play. That, that could work in our favour towards the end of the season.

So yeah, there's the, there's lots to look forward to, but as you say, if we could get a playoff place that would, and which it, which would mean that we'd finish the highest this club we'd ever done.

In a season where we've been in such turmoil wow, that would be worth celebrating. "
