AMATEUR LEAGUE: Barn United trying to freshen things up
There's a new management team in Paul Mathers and Jonny McFerran as Amateur League Barn United begin life in 1B after being relegated last season.
McFerran told the Times: “We’re trying to get some younger players in to freshen things up after those relegation battles of the last few seasons.

First up is the visit of Billy Youle’s rejuvenated UUJ on Saturday (2pm).
