First Played: 1981-2
Win Rate: 56% (from 9 games)
Holbeach United are one of the sides we first met after our 1981 promotion to the United Counties League Premier Division. We had our ups and our downs against the Tigers; an 8-0 win in the 1984-5 FA Cup Preliminary Round sticking out for us. We also put five past them that season in the FA Vase too. You can still find ’em in the UCL Premier Division as it goes; winning the title three times since the first in the 1989-90 campaign.

Leave the Peterborough stretch of the A1(M) at Junction 17 for the A1139. Take the A1139 Fletton Parkway for eight miles; going across two roundabouts. You then want to take the third exit at the roundabout onto the A47 Eye Road, before the first exit for Crowland Road by a Travelodge hotel.
Continue on Peterborough Road for 1.7 miles; then taking the third exit at the roundabout after 1.9 miles for A16. After 2.3 miles, turn right for the B1166 for four miles. Bear left onto the B1168 for another four miles. Stay on the B1168 and – after reaching Holbeach – take the right onto Park Road.

Not much of a car park to speak of, but plenty of street parking should be on hand.
No station to speak of – so rail is not an option.
