Notts Senior League
Division One
BINGHAM TOWN FC 2 UNDERWOOD VILLA FC 1
With Bingham Town in 3rd place with games in hand on the top two in the division, they really needed the three points against a very well organised Underwood Villa. On arrival at the Butt Lane Ground, I was greeted by a few of the officials from both clubs before getting a cuppa in the nice clubhouse.
With local rivals West Bridgford FC's match being called off, a few of their management had arrived to watch this afternoons proceedings and a chat with them as they play host to Bingham Town in the final match of this seasons Notts Senior League Groundhop event on Saturday 12t April with a 6.30pm kick off.
A quick chat with old friend Neil Loughlin from Belper and then I was joined at pitchside by Heanor Town's Tony Squires and the Cotgrave FC manager.
The game kicked off with Bingham having the wind behind their backs and took the game to the visitors and had a few chances to take a early lead, but Villa came back in to the match with more confidence and had several chances of their own in a evenly balanced game.
After 28 minutes, the homesters were awarded a free kick and from 20 yards out, up stepped TOM SPENCER to curl the ball over the Underwood wall and in to the net to give Town the lead.
Half time came and went and Underwood now had the wind behind them and forged forward but with difficult conditions, wayward shooting could not pull them level, though at this stage of the game, they looked the better of the two sides.
On 70 minutes, Underwood got their deserved equaliser when a corner from the left side came in and fell at the feet of DANE WAKEFIELD who bungled the ball home to the delight of his fellow players.
This seemed to prompt Bingham in to action and they had a chance that just sailed over the crossbar before in the 75th minute, TOM SPENCER sprinted through the two centre halfs and placed his shot under the advancing goal keeper to give his side a 2-1 lead.
With ten minutes to go, Villa thought they had claimed a draw when they had the ball in the net, but it was adjudged to be offside.
