Re: Tue 4 Mar 25 : Gainsborough Trinity v ilkeston Town : Ko 7 45pm
Because of their exploits in the FA Cup and FA Trophy, Trinity have spent most of the season in the bottom half of the table. it's been a case of league form suffering because of playing so many matches. But they are recognised as one of the best sides in the league.
Their home record is P14. W5. D3. L6, F19, A20, Points 18.
Declan Howe was top scorer in the league last season and has scored 29 goals this season (15 in the league)
They are unbeaten in their last 5 matches (2 wins and 3 draws)

Could this be the match when our luck changes. We've been on the wrong end of several penalty decisions in recent matches. Maybe we'll get one at Gainsborough. Our's is the only midweek game this week so we have a chance to go within two points of Stockton. Keep the faith. Deaks and the team won't give up so why should we? All the teams around the playoffs are dropping points.

If you can't make it - Follow the action here tonight as you eat your pancakes
Team news around 7 30 - Kickoff 7 45
Do you remember? :
Last season we won 1-0 at Gainsborough when Jamie Walker scored a senational goal
" Dixon shot blocked by a defender. We're on top just now.
AMAZING. Walker lobs a goal from half way. Ilkeston lead 1-0. on 24 mins"

Ilkeston free kick near corner flag. Kirby-Moore misses his header from Walker's free kick. Or was he pushed? Good catch by Yates. Stevens dragged down as about to shoot. Daniel to take the kick . It hits the wall. 0-0. 36 mins

Not a great first half but we're level and neither side has really looked like scoring.

Parker receiving treatment for injury. He's okay. Kirby-Moore is brought down in area but ref waves appeals away. Incredible. 0-0. 63 mins
