WhiteBallProject » Tue 19 Dec: Gresley v Ilkeston : Derbyshire Senior Cup: ko 745

Matchman · 18/12/2023 6:40 AM

.

Tomorrow night we try again to play this Derbyshire Senior Cup game which was postponed a fortnight ago due to bad weather. With the away match at Workington to come on Saturday, I would expect Ian Deakin to give opportunities to some of the squad players but we should still be strong enough to progress to the next round.

Jebbison can't play

WhiteBallProject · 18/12/2023 6:16 PM

Thats a bit harsh! I've heard he's quite decent!!!

Matchman · 18/12/2023 6:43 PM

While Ilkeston are at Gresley, there are three scheduled matches in the NPL

Atherton Colls v Marine
Whitby v Stafford Rangers
Workington v Macclesfield

A win for Whitby could lift them 4 places to 6th.
A win for Marine would put them joint 4th, level on points with Worksop
A win for Macclesfield would put them into the playoff positions
Incredibly, Workington have drawn their last five matches. Can they make it six?
Can't see Atherton or Stafford getting any points.

Also playing in the Southern League are Mickleover who travel to Stamford.

Score updates from these matches and all the action from Gresley.

Great block by Minkley prevents a shot on goal. Another decent cross by Banton for Gresley but Leivers plucks it out of the air. Ilkeston corner again on the left. Short corner and the ball is in the net but offside flag is raised. 0-0. 30 mins

Ilkeston having more possession but not really threatening to score. Through ball almost finds Jebbison. Nearly but not quite. there's little threat from Gresley. 0-0. 36 mins

Att 177
Great play by Brandy setting up a chance for Jebbison but his effort goes the wrong side of the post. Ilkeston are looking much more like it now. Brandy is causing the problems . His free kick nearly goes in at the far post . 0-0. 59 mins
