Whitby Town Want Yorkshire Derby Victory

Friday, 7 November 2025 18:30

The Blues host West Yorkshire side Guiseley, at the Towbar Express Stadium, on Saturday.

Guiseley appointed Ian Richards from rivals Stocksbridge Park Steels as their new manager but have yet to record a victory under him.

However, Blues striker and former Guiseley player, Jake Charles, is still expecting a difficult clash:

" It's going to be a tough test on Saturday, especially with them having the new manager in. They've got a good squad as it is and I'm sure they're expecting not to be at the end of the table, where they are at the minute. So they'll be looking to try and get a result, but it's our job to make it difficult for them, and obviously we're in good form at home as well. So we want to continue that.

He [Richards] did a good job down at Stocksbridge and, and I think that's obviously what Guiseley have seen, the job that he's done and brought him in. And he's got a good squad there at Guiseley, I know a couple of their lads, and they're obviously not happy where they are on the table. We need to try and keep them at bay on Saturday, stick to what we're good at and go from there."

There's more from Charles, as well as player-manager Gary Liddle, on this week's Codcast.

Kick-off at the Towbar Express Stadium is 3pm.

If you really can't make it, there's live commentary on This Is The Coast Extra from just before 3.
