Next up for the Yeltz, we welcome @ilkestontown_fc to the Grove on Saturday in the first qualifying round of the @EmiratesFACup 3pm ko
#UpTheYeltz #EmiratesFACup #QueSeraSera

.

Halesowen have made a better start than us

Halesowen have more points than us.

Halesowen have won every match so far.

Halesowen have more supporters than us.

Halesowen beat Sporting Khalsa. We lost to Sporting Khalsa

Halesowen beat Belper. We only drew with Belper.

All these things counts for nothing. I believe can go there and win.

This is a very important match even though not a league match. At this very early stage of the season a cup win against the unbeaten league leaders would be a massive confidence booster.

I think a lot of teams in our league will be interested in the result of this match, especialiy Stamford.

We have a cafe inside the ground where you can get burgers, chips, pies and hot and cold drinks.

Car Parking: Unfortunately the car park is for players and officals only so it is on street parking (Please be respectful of our neighbours).

Directions to the ground

By Car: Get to Junction 3 of the M5. Head towards Kidderminster on the A458 for a mile or so to the first traffic island at the bottom of the hill. Turn right on to the A459 towards Dudley (the cricket ground should now be on your left) and continue past where the road splits to the next island. Turn left here on to the A456 towards Stourbridge until you get to the next island. Take the 3rd exit (Old Hawne Lane) and the ground is about 400 yards away, at the top of the hill on the left.

By Train: The easiest way is to get to Birmingham New Street, and then get a number 9 bus to Halesowen that will drop you off outside the ground on the Stourbridge Road. You can also get a train to Old Hill/Cradley Heath and take a taxi to the ground which will take around 5 minutes.

By Bus: The number 9 comes from both Stourbridge and Birmingham/Halesowen directions which will drop you off outside the ground on the Stourbridge Road. The 9's run upto every 6 minutes in the day.

Duties completed just in time so we're ready to go. It looks like a big crowd at this lovely ground.

The teams are out. Ilkeston wearing their home kit because Halesowen are in blue. Ross is skipper today.

We're off ......

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:08 PM

Loud support for the Yeltz. First chance to Halesowen but header is over the bar. Great save by Durrant from Lait. 0-0 7 mins

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:12 PM

Ilkeston are having to defend. Constant drum beat and noise from the Yelttz fans. Really strong start by Halesowen. 0-0 12 mins

It's all Halesowen so far. No attacks by Ilkeston. All the play is in our half. 0-0 20 mins

Ex Robin Danny Gordon puts Long Eaton 1-0 up against Coleshill Town

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:26 PM

Wow, Ilkeston nearly score. Keeper saves from Webb. That was so close. Brown-Hill makes space and shoots from distance but Platt saves easily. 0-0 26 mins

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:32 PM

Has to be said we've defended well so far. Oh oh! Penalty to Halesowen. Into the top corner 0-1 31 minutes Harry White the scorer.

Poor defending by Ilkeston 0-2 35 minutes Harry White again Durrant not happy with the defending

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:42 PM

Spence booked for no more than reaching out with his foot. Wakefield booked for petty infringement. Both yellows unjust in my opinion. 0-2 42 mins

Matchman · 04/9/2021 1:47 PM

Rogers crosses but no one there. Ilkeston attacks are rare.

Half time 0-2 Can't argue with that.

Been busy this giving out leaflets and posters up town . Then been working up the bloody loft then when I had a minute checked on the team. I was quite how many changes but fully understand .
Now I ve seen the score . Seem to be on the back foot a lot as I gather . But not many attacks ?

Matchman · 04/9/2021 2:10 PM

No half time changes. Wakefield break through but fires wide. Better start by Ilkeston. Good run and . Flick by Brown-Hill nearly sends Webb away. cross by Rogers . Verma, Campbell and Goodson on 0-2 54 mins
