Gosport Borough’s hopes of beating Lymington II and avoiding the drop back into the Hampshire League have been dealt a double blow – by American rapper Kendrick Lamar !
Talented teenage all-rounders Jacob Harris and Jack Richards are off to the sell-out Reading Festival to watch the Californian Grammy Award winner.
So they will miss the Privett Park basement battle, the losers of which will almost certainly be relegated from Premier Division 3.
Rock bottom Gosport, six points off safety, have been successful only once in their last five games, whereas Lymington have won their last two completed games.
Gosport Borough: Larner, Harrop, S Creal, Pennicott, Campbell, Stares, King, Wood, Kitchen, O Creal, C Creal.
Lymington: Kelly, Agha, Barton, Whyte, Adams, Robertson, Layman, Attrill, Cox, Woodward, Willis.
It’s so tight at the bottom of Premier 3 that only nine points separate the bottom four sides.
The penultimate round of fixtures sees Havant II hosting newly acclaimed champions Fair Oak and Fawley entertaining Purbrook, who are pressing strongly for promotion in second place.
Teenager Max Watson returns from the Wellington College rugby tour to Australia to open the Oaks batting alongside Will Hughes, but Tom Hockenhull is absent at Havant Park.
Fair Oak: Hughes, Watson, Kemp, Smith, Abbas, McKenzie, Gradwell, Gwynn, Bullough, Oxley, Stewart.
Fawley hauled themselves out of the immediate danger zone with a fine win at Havant last week, but will have to pull out all the stops again when Purbrook visit Holbury.
Purbrook have won four of their last five games to open up a 16-point lead over South Wilts II, whom they play at Bemerton on September 1.
Bashley (Rydal) II, who have slipped out of the promotion frame, entertain Portsmouth & Southsea.
Bashley (Rydal) II: J Underwood, S Morris, C Vaughan, S Ridley, G Pardy, M O Sullivan, R Grierson, J Eede, N Taylor, C Gates, T Harris.
