Alfreton Town V Tamworth

[super_ram]

Tonight I am going to watch my home town team Alfreton Town on BT Sport 2.I haven't seen them live for  over 40 years but I'm sure it will bring back a lot of memories.I remember them being re-formed in 1959 and going on their ground preseason with my mates dad and uncle who helped in preparing  fencing etc in preparation for the new season.They were in the Central Alliance then and the first match was against the previous seasons champions,Arnold St.Mary's.They won this match 6-2.Little did we imagine ,at the time,that Alfreton Town would progress to within touching distance of The Football League and be on the telly.Happy days.

I'd be up for watching this as well! Oh well, I'll be at the panto (watch me be on here also) haha.

Alfreton need to keep pushing, big success. Can you remember me asking Grandad Tom if he thought Alfreton would ever make the football league? He always responded like Grandad Ray would when I asked if we would get into the Premiership. LOL

Really hope they do well, I read awhile back that they was going to go amateur again but the way they're going, semi pro/professional could be the way forward. I wanted to go to our friendly game against them (previous season). Tamworth are a little hit and miss, a good Non League side but I'd have my money on Alfreton to win the game myself.

COME ON ALFRETON! (I said I wouldn't do this after Derby lost to Leicester)

good luck to them, i like seeing small teams without league status getting up and growing. it would be good for local sides, as theres already a few local teams in league two.

I might watch a bit of that myself, I would far rather see a match like that than watch a European match to be honest. I wonder if there will be any ex Notts players on show?

Apparently the match has been postponed!

A couple of my pals live in and around Alfreton, I would have watched this myself.
