Yes it has been 8 months since I last 'blogged' - excuse ? none really, just been really busy with the photography and the football and trying to fit in a full-time job. Apart from that nothing much. Belper failing to make the play off was very disappointing but winning the Derbyshire Senior Cup after a break of 28 years was without doubt the highlight of the season.
After going to the Impact Arena two weeks before and winning 3-2 it was all back to the Meadow for the 2nd leg.
After going to the Impact Arena two weeks before and winning 3-2 it was all back to the Meadow for the 2nd leg.0-0 at half-time was an acceptible result for the Nailers but midway through the 2nd half the Reds took the lead. Level on aggregate and away goals not counting for anything we were looking at extra time (and possibly penalties). Who else but Ross Hannah then becomes the hero by being pulled back in the area, PENALTY ! Ross took on the responsibility and fires low past the keeper for 1-1 (4-3 on aggregate). A final minute goal-mouh melee results in the Nailers holding firm and the cup is staying at the Meadow !
Captain Fantastic (Jon Hobson) collects the cup and Belper are Derbyshire Senior Cup winners for 2008 - did they quite like that ??????
