JOINT-bosses Lee Hughes and John Snape will be hoping their Worcester City side can pick up their winning start to 2018 when they welcome Sporting Khalsa on Saturday.
The Blue and Whites’ stop-start beginning to the year continued on Saturday when the home clash with Rocester was called off due to a waterlogged pitch.
City were scheduled to travel to Westfields last night for what would have been only their fourth game in the last nine weeks and their second of 2018.
The Blue and Whites face an immense fixture backlog with 22 league games to play in a little over three months.
Seemingly endless postponements combined with landlords Bromsgrove Sporting having a large number of home games left as well as possible cup clashes have also raised the spectre of City possibly playing four games a week.
City have fallen 14 points off the top of the Midland Football League Premier Division but leaders Coleshill Town have played four games more.
Saturday’s visitors Khalsa currently lie third in the table, eight points behind Coleshill but again having played four games more than City.
The promotion rivals battled out a pulsating 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture in October as Mark Smith’s early header was cancelled out by a Dave Meese leveller in the Black Country rain.
Kick off at the Victoria Ground is 3pm.
