Danum Eagles set for Division Two relegation decider with London Greenhouse Pioneers
Danum Eagles face a winner-takes-all survival scrap with London Greenhouse Pioneers at The Pods in Scunthorpe on Saturday (4pm).
Eagles lost 75-55 to Tees Valley Mohawks at the weekend in a game that saw leading scorer and rebounder Mathew Martin suffer a season ending ankle injury early in the second quarter.
But fellow strugglers Liverpool’s defeat to already relegated Newham has granted the Doncaster club a stay of execution in the battle to avoid the drop from Division Two of the National League.
Victory for the Eagles this weekend would move them level on points with both Liverpool and London Greenhouse, which would mean the second relegation spot being decided on points difference.
Defeat would condemn Eagles to the drop following two promotions in the last two years.
Under 18 star Sonny Singh has been added to the squad.
