Darlington FC Women are back in league action this week. They were originally scheduled to play Boldon Ladies. However, due to a cancellation, the Quaker Women are now travelling to Belle Vue to take on Consett Ladies for the second successive weekend.

Quakers won last weekend's Quarter Final on penalties after a 3-3 draw in normal time. This will be the first time the two sides have met this season in the league and there are a massive three points up for grabs. With both teams chasing promotion, Darlington will want to secure the points as they chase Consett in that 2nd position, but the Steelers will certainly be up for revenge after being knocked out of the cup and still unbeaten in the league.

There was a crowd of 100+ there last week and it would be great to see more travelling support to cheer on the Quaker Women.

Quakers are sixth in the latest league table:
