2-0 winners
Sorry a bit late with this post, but went to Alfreton v Solihull on Monday and saw a cracking performance from Alfreton. As on Saturday the Solihull No.6 elbowed, pushed and grabbed his way through the 90 minutes mainly against Aden Flint and Paul Clayton. Alas, the referee had a weaker spine than a jellyfish so when Charlie O'Loughlin (Solihull's No 6) elbowed Flint to the the floor in the second half he was given a yellow card. No wonder Nicky Law was getting upset during the game.Numerous decisions went against the home team who played some great stuff particularly down the wings and should have won by more. Josh Law finished twice but Solihull finished the game looking tired and jaded.
When Alfreton can afford to have players the calibre of Nathan Jarman, Daryl Clare and Ian Ross on the bench I have no doubt they will win this league.
In an exclusive interview with the BUFC Nottingham supporters , ( Colwick branch ) Daryl confirmed that his best man (Paul Ellender) has retired from football, and he's staying with Alfreton till the end of the season and then has a year left at Cambridge.
