PAUL Crosbie masterminded his first victory as March Town United boss as the Hares beat Long Sutton Athletic 3-1.

The Hares cruised to their first pre-season victory on Saturday, four days after they had kicked off their warm-up campaign with a 4-1 defeat at Peterborough Northern Star.

There was more good news for the club off the pitch, as players continued to sign up for a new era at the GER.

Chatteris Town’s Aidan Hollis has signed for Crosbie’s side and another former Lilies player, Tony Brown, looks set to commit. Robbie Masters, a former player manager at Swineshead Institute, has also signed.

Strikers Masters, Brown, who can also play as a centre-back, and Stu Anderson scored in Saturday’s victory.

The Hares travel to Parson Drove on Thursday before hosting Wisbech Town in the pre-season BKD Cup on Saturday.
