Gresley form and stats

With 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Gresley, who have the most conceded goals (73) in Non League Div One: Northern South, are certainly not brimming with confidence. With eleven home games in a row without a win, the Gresley fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Stamford game long ago, can be stopped today. Gresley has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager M. Rowe and the players.

Gresley lost their last game at Lincoln United after a 0-1 scoreline. Before that game, the home loss against Marske United with the scoreline 0-1.

The Gresley fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 16 in 15 matches. Gresley are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (33 from 15 played).
