Founded in 1941, Lancing are playing at the highest level in their history at non-league step four.
They have four points from their first eight games and sit 20th in the league in the relegation zone.
Three Bridges were unable to host this weekend’s match on Sunday because of a women’s FA Cup match being played at their temporary Bauvill Stadium in Chatham, Kent.
Former Brighton youth player Robinson, who has 13 Bermuda caps, joined Lancing from Whitehawk in the summer.
Winger Scott is playing in his second season for the club, having moved from Hastings in 2023.
“Knory is a lovely lad – quiet. You couldn’t hope to meet a nicer guy,” Sutton said.
“Luke has been around a lot of clubs at a higher level.
“To have international players is something we’re enormously proud of.
“We’ve got a Bermuda flag which we hang up behind one of the goals each home game.”
A derby in League Two with revenge the order of the day – is there a better way to start your EFL weekend?
Chesterfield and Notts County are just 28 miles apart but in 2023 both teams and 38,000 fans headed down the M1 motorway to Wembley for the National League Play-off final.
The Spireites twice took the lead only for the Magpies to peg them back and take the game to extra time.
County’s substitute goalkeeper Archie Mair, brought on to replace Sam Slocombe in the 120th minute, then saved spot-kicks from Darren Oldaker and Jeff King before Cedwyn Scott sealed a dramatic 4-3 shootout triumph.
Chesterfield did end their six-year exile in non-league 12 months later, however, cruising to the National League title.
The Spireites have made a steady start to this campaign, losing only two of their opening 10 games and know a win would take them within a point of County, who have also lost only twice.
They are unbeaten at home, drawing four of their five matches, while the Magpies are unbeaten on the road, with 11 points from their five away games making this their best start to a campaign on their travels in a decade.
The referee for this one is Matt Corlett, who also officiated on that sultry day last May, dishing out six bookings, three to either side.
Former Hibernian, Liverpool and Scotland midfielder Peter Cormack has died at the age of 78.
Cormack, who earned nine international caps, won two league titles, the Uefa Cup and FA Cup during a four-year spell at Anfield between 1972 and 1976 working under manager Bill Shankly.
Born in Edinburgh, he was a youth signing with Heart of Midlothian, but it was with city rivals Hibs where he broke into the first team, playing 182 times across seven years before moving to Nottingham Forest, Liverpool and Bristol City, with whom he won the Anglo-Scottish Cup.
He returned to Scotland for a second spell at Easter Road before finishing his playing career with Partick Thistle.
Cormack began his managerial career with Thistle and also had spells in charge of Anorthosis, Botswana, Cowdenbeath and Greenock Morton.
Fleetwood turned to the inexperienced Charlie Adam as manager last season but he could not prevent relegation from League One.
The Scotsman has the Cod Army in the final play-off spot, playing an attractive possession-based style but they could drop out of the top seven on Saturday with their game against Colchester postponed because of international call-ups.
After defeat by Crawley in the play-off final, Crewe have regrouped and five wins from six matches has them in eighth place before their trip to Doncaster.
The Gresty Road club lost the goals of Elliott Nevitt and Courtney Baker-Richardson in the summer when they turned down new deals, while Rio Adebisi and Luke Offord also opted for pastures new.
Manager Lee Bell did convince forward Chris Long to sign a new contract and former Stevenage striker Kane Hemmings will have to plug the gap up front.
Bradford are always tipped to be up among the frontrunners and in Graham Alexander they have a man who has promotion experience from League Two with Fleetwood.
The Bantams also have the prolific Andy Cook, and if he stays fit they will surely remain in the frame.
Newport are going down a different route after dispensing with the services of Graham Coughlan and appointing the former Swansea coach, Nelson Jardim.
The Portuguese is well known to Newport owner Huw Jenkins from their time together at Liberty Stadium, and the loan signing of striker Kyle Hudlin looks a smart piece of business.
Along with Bradford and Newport, Grimsby find themselves just one point outside the play-off spots with manager David Artell waxing lyrical about their recent win at Gillingham.
A subsequent 3-0 home defeat by Doncaster felt like a dose of reality and they will need to plug a leaky defence which is the third worst in the division.
Fresh from romping to the National League title by 12 points, Chesterfield were many pundits’ tip for promotion and, despite an inconsistent start, a four-match unbeaten run may indicate they are getting to grips with things.
With James Berry, Armando Dobra, Will Grigg and Dilan Markanday in his ranks, manager Paul Cook is well stocked with the firepower needed to sustain a promotion push.
A lunchtime win over Notts County for the Spireites would push them up from 12th to seventh.
Paul Scally has been voted off the board at Gillingham after 29 years at the club.
The former chairman sold his majority stake to American businessman Brad Galinson in December 2022 but continued to serve as a non-executive director.
He was officially voted out of the position by shareholders on Thursday after Galinson called a meeting at Priestfield Stadium.
“We are very frustrated with how little we can say about it,” Galinson told a fan forum event on Thursday evening.
“Mr Scally was removed as a director both at the football club and GFC Holdings, so that was concluded. It’s been a difficult process.”
It ends the 69-year-old’s association with the club with immediate effect.
Gillingham were relegated to League Two in 2022 after nine seasons in League One.
They are aiming to gain promotion this season, and sit in second place before their home game against Accrington Stanley on Saturday.
England interim manager Lee Carsley says the Three Lions “have to be courageous at times” after his attacking line-up failed to impress in a 2-1 defeat by Greece.
