Moulton travel over to Godmanchester Rovers on Easter Monday 6th April (3:00 KO).
‘Goddy’ are based just outside Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire and their home kit is light Blue shirts, Navy shorts and socks. Established in 1911, the club won the Hunts Junior Cup. They played in the Huntingdonshire League for many years before joining the Cambridgeshire League. They won the Hunts Junior Cup again in 1988–89, and in 1992 were promoted to the top division of the Cambridgeshire League. In 1994–95 they won the League Cup, retaining it for the next two seasons. However, they were relegated to the Senior Division in 2000. With the club about to move into a new ground, they made a speculative application to join the Eastern Counties League in 2002. Despite being in the second tier of the Cambridgeshire League, the club were successful. They finished bottom of the division in 2004–05, but were not relegated as the league was understrength in terms of numbers. In 2011–12 the club won Division One on goal difference to earn promotion to the Premier Division, and also won the Division One Knock-out Cup, defeating Whitton United 1–0 in the final. In 2014–15 the club finished as runners-up in the Premier Division and won the Hunts Senior Cup. The 2015–16 they were Premier Division runners-up for a second successive season. In 2018–19 Godmanchester won Hunts Senior Cup for a second time, beating St Neots Town 6–0 in the final, and the Hinchingbrooke Cup, defeating Pinchbeck United 4–2 on penalties after a 3–3 draw. At the end of the 2020–21 season the club were transferred to the Premier Division South of the United Counties League. In 2022–23 they won the Hinchingbrooke Cup for a second time, beating Stotfold 1–0 in the final. Last season they ended up in 19th place and were relegated from the United Counties League Premier Division South. However, they were given a reprieve and allowed to remain in the UCL when Rugby Town were themselves given a reprieve after being allowed to remain in the NPL Midlands after they were initially relegated.
