Knights seek new home

The ‘home’ ground for Pinchbeck United’s first team next season remains a mystery, with the club’s manager keeping quiet about their future location.

Lewis Thorogood said he could not confirm any move but did say the Knights would no longer be playing first-team matches in Spalding or Pinchbeck.

While the first team would continue training at their original Glebe Field home in Knight Street, Pinchbeck, he said the groundshare with Spalding United at the Sir Halley Stewart Field had ended, following the Tulips’ investment of more than £1m in upgrading the venue.

A document at Companies House filed earlier this month shows the club’s registered office is now in Sleaford, a move that Thorogood said simply reflected a historic change of address of the club’s owner.

Thorogood said he expected details of the new season would be released in a club statement as soon as things had been sorted out and to ‘protect the interests of those involved’.

The Knights, who left their village home in 2017, to share with Spalding United in order to gain promotion from the Peterborough League, had been rumoured to be moving to Sleaford Town and were thought to have applied for a switch back to the United Counties League.

However, the provisional list of league membership shows them remaining in the Eastern Counties League, where they will again face trips as far afield as Essex and the Suffolk coast.
