Mid-week Integro Cup preview: A crazy night of Evo-Stik action

By Alex Beard
Almost all of the Evo-Stik league’s participants are in action tonight, as teams prepare for the opening round of this year’s Integro Cup.
Among those in action tonight are Evo-Stik Premier leaders Altrincham, Phil Parkinson and his men welcoming a familiar opponent in eighth place Ashton United to Moss Lane this evening.
Second place Warrington Town are one of the Premier teams who will be facing something a little different, as they travel to face North side Colwyn Bay at Red Lions Foods Stadium. Likewise, struggling Halesowen Town, who will take on a Romulus side bottom of the South.
Bamber Bridge, who lead the North, stay in the division against sixth place Prescot Cables. While second place outfit South Shields do not, welcoming a Farsley Celtic side riding high in the Premier to Mariners Park.
There will be an interesting contest at Sheerien Park tonight, where Shaw Lane – who are third in the Premier – host a Cleethorpes Town side second in the South.
Meanwhile, Witton Albion will take on Radcliffe Borough, Glossop North End face Mossley and Stocksbridge Park Steels are at Frickley Athletic.
