Sheffield 1 Belper Town 1
Will it be on? Will it get called off again? The Sheffield Club, or Sheffield FC or The oldest club in the world (whatever they like to be called) have a reputation of having a lot of games called off. Infact they are the only side in the division who have played less games than Belper. After the relatively short drive to Dronfield in North Derbyshire we find that the pitch does not look too bad at all. There are signs of snow around the perimeter, I do wonder if it could be the oldest snow in the world, bt then again I think it could just be my imagination. The main noticeable thing is how light it is under the floodlights, but then again I shouldn’t be surprised as we are at the BRIGHT Finance Stadium. I had only taken my 85mm f1.8 lens and I do oinder if I could have used the 70-200 f2.8 tonight – I’m so used to leaving it at home for Belper night games, I’ve done the same tonight !
We find that Stevo is in the starting 11 which is a bit of a surprise as he missed Saturdays home game against Gresley after breaking his little finger and having a pin put in it. As it turns out his injury holds him back and he isn’t the Stevo that has scored 20 goals so far this season, he is eventually substituted after 55 minutes. No Hobbo (ankle injury) or Barney (suspension) made the side look a little weak.
A quick drink in the hospitality suite and then it’s out into the cool night ready for kick off. Find myself standing with Stevo’s mum and dad – nice people, they do speak in a funny accent but I’ve decided not to hold that against them.
The first half is a scrappy affair on a pitch that soon starts to cut up and look like the aftermath of a horserace. Massive put Belper ahead only to see it ruled out for an alleged push which no-one else saw. My photo did nothing to clear up the mystery. Sheffield looked dangerous on the break and looked more comfortable on the pudding of a pitch.
2nd half and the goal that Sheffield had threatened in the first 45 materialised
when a ball into the centre found the Sheffield striker free to poke it home for 1-0. A tense period for Belper ended with Deano playing a great cross into the box for Willo to trap, turn and score in a single fluid movement, it’s no wonder that League scouts are reported to be watching him.
Belper could have won it when substitute Pete ‘Smudger’ Smith went close on two occasions to snatching all three points for Belper but was denied by former Nailers keeper Marc Furniss.
A short trip back round Chesterfield and we’re home again looking forward to the biggest game of the season on Saturday at Retford united.
Next Up - Retford United

It could be the ωeiгdeѕt thing shе's ever worn despite her amazing efforts of freaking us out with odd fashion choices. You can take your time coloring them to make a fashionable and conservative piece of outerwear. You can embrace the roundness of R2-D2 with a custom bra made in your choice of colors limited to pastels during other times of the year! The other is next to a" dollar store" which sells everything for a buck or less, then the sycophants and so on.
