Rossington return home for the final fixture before Christmas as Rosso host Golcar United on Saturday afternoon.
Rossington will be hoping to go into the festive celebrations with another good performance against Golcar at Oxford Street after three postponed games in a row including Pickering Town, Goole AFC and Silsden AFC.

Following a win in the pair’s last meeting, Ben Hunter’s side will be hoping to complete the first Non-League step 5 league double for Rosso with a victory over Golcar.
