Wollaton Res v Basford Utd Res -- NSL Junior Cup final
Bit of a treat is Monday night football....but I'll tell you what, by the end of extra-time and penalties it was bloody freezing...I have never left a ground so quickly to get home!!!!
Anyway this was a chance to see Notts Senior League teams in action for the first time this season, and I have to say the 90 minutes regulation were okay.... nothing brilliant, but seen worse....last Wednesday comes to mind...
Having never seen either team, your first thought is who is who - then you see the crest on the blue shirt is Wollaton Hall -- kind of gave it away really!!
Basford took the lead on 18, their no. 9 drew the defenders to him then whipped the ball across the goal where his strike partner J. Manders was waiting to stroke home. It was level after 36, a corner fired in - a glancing header from Wolly skipper Dean Hind, with the 6' 6" keeper shouting that the ball was his!! Oh no, it wasn't....H-T 1-1

Wollaton took the lead on 65, Peach winning a race against his marker and slotting past Palethorpe in the Basford goal. 90 seconds later it was all level.
This you had to see to believe -- a shot from the Wollaton no.10 ended up spinning back towards his own half -- the Basford right winger raced onto the ball and crossed into the box where Manders was waiting to loop a header over Wollaton keeper Elliott....!! F-T 2-2
