Scarborough Athletic V Whitby Town: It's Derby Day!

Tuesday, 20 October 2020 10:26

By Paddy

Boro play The Blues at The Flamingo Land Stadium tonight at 7:30pm.

Covid restrictions means capacity is capped at 600, with all tickets for the match sold.

510 Scarborough supporters along with 90 Whitby fans will be watching the game, with both clubs having similar starts to the Pitching In Northern Premier League season.

Whitby have played five, winning two, losing two and drawing one.

Scarborough have played six, winning two, losing two and drawing two.

Boro Chairman Trevor Bull spoke to Paddy earlier about the logistics of tonight's match:

"This one is a bit special with our near neighbours coming down from Whitby. It's just a shame we can't have more people there. What we've done which other grounds haven't is we've allocated people sections of the ground, seated and standing. If Whitby fans enter the ground by the swimming pool end of the stadium. They'll be more than welcome. We have got some catering facilities in the corner and have they'll have toilet facilities in the main stand. Plenty of space for 90 people".

Scarborough will be streaming the match live for those who can't attend. The £5 cost goes to the club, after streaming costs, and helps recoup some of the money lost on the turnstiles. Details are available on the club's website and social media pages.

Good luck to both sides tonight.
