Tom Loizou’s team host Thame United of the Evo-Stik League South Division One East this weekend

Haringey Borough will take a welcome break from Bostik North action this weekend when they host Thame United in the third qualifying round of the FA Trophy.

It has been a tough few days for the Coles Park club with Tom Loizou’s side losing their unbeaten record.

Heading into Saturday’s game at Brentwood Town, Borough were the only team yet to taste defeat in the division this season.

But in a repeat of last April, when Town won 2-0 at home to Haringey, they repeated the trick to end their unbeaten record with another 2-0 victory.

Borough were looking to bounce back on Tuesday at promotion rivals Canvey Island, but suffered a 1-0 loss.

Loizou’s team remain fifth in the table and in a good position due to their games in hand, but they’ll look to rediscover their form when they host Oxfordshire-based Thame United, who ply their trade in the Evo-Stik League South Division One East.
