Lions Ready To Roar As National League Talents Get The Call

It is jam-packed full of National League talent as the Three Lions boss names his 16 - and the contingency squad - he will be taking to Llanelli Town’s Stebonheath Park on Tuesday March 19.

The team is sure to be a threat with Worthing hit-man Ollie Pearce and Eastleigh’s 28-goal Paul McCallum included. Hartlepool’s Emmanuel Dieseruvwe, Barnet forward Callum Stead and Solihull Moors’ Callum Maycock also get call ups.

Mark Jones’ Welsh side are seeking revenge following a 1-0 defeat in Altrincham last year - and Fairclough is of course keen for back-to-back wins.

The match sees players from the National League and below represent their country in two months’ time against a side made up of players from Wales Cymru Leagues.

A goal from Ryan De Havilland earned victory last time out and that performance helped earn the player a move to League One gem-polishers Peterborough United. He’s not the only one with two other talents grabbing EFL moves since the last meeting.

Speaking to the Non-League Paper, excited former Barnet boss Fairclough said: “I look forward with great anticipation to our annual fixture with our friends from across the border. The games continue to be highly competitive, offering fans a feast of entertainment from two groups of talented players.”
