Tuesday saw Oadby Town play Burton Park Wanderers in a United Counties League game at Freeway Park Wigston Road Oadby.
The visitors are having a tough year sitting at the bottom of the league but Oadby could take nothing for granted. After a lot of hard work by the groundsman clearing snow from the pitch the game got the go ahead following a pitch inspection.
Oadby Town showed their usual composure and it was not long before they took the lead with a deflected Jon Stevenson shot beating the Burton Park keeper. As the game progressed Oadby had a firm hold and some fine work in the midfield from Jake Duffy, Elliott Wright, Che Adams, Ollie Brown-Hill and Stefan Oakes meant Burton Park did not get time to settle. A 30 yard pass from Stefan Oakes that fell to the feet of Ollie Brown-Hill was duly finished to make it a comfortable 2 - 0 to Oadby at half time. The second half continued in the same vein with a further goal from Jon Stevenson and one from Jake Duffy sealing the victory for Oadby and a final score of 4 - 0.
Oadby now travel on Saturday to AFC Rushden and Diamonds for a crunch match at the Dog and Duck ground Wellingborough which sees two of the top teams in the league go head to head.
