Scarborough return to action at Silver Royd on Saturday for only their third home game this year as they take on York in Yorkshire One.

Although they lost to high-flyers Bradford & Bingley and Bridlington in those home games they have made steady progress in their five games on the road.

A 21-20 win on the artificial pitch at West Park Leeds, a 29-29 draw at Yarnbury, a terrific win in a Blizzard at Old Brods, defeat at Hullensians and last week a 13-10 win at Bradford Salem thanks to an injury-time drop-goal by skipper Tom Ratcliffe; three wins, a draw and one defeat; not a bad haul.

Scarborough recorded a well-deserved 31-12 victory at York in early November, however the men from Clifton Park have been on a good run this year losing only one game in seven (at Bridlington) including last Saturday’s 25-18 win at strugglers Old Crossleyans.
