It’s Matchday number 27 in the league and we’re 8 points off a playoff place and 8 points off a relegation place. It’s been a season of winning sequences and losing sequences. After wins against Lancaster and Alfreton, a win today could set us up for another run of wins as our next two matches after Cleethorpes are against strugglers Leek and Workington.

Ilkeston corner won by Youmbi. Nothing from it. Not much quality so far. Clee header is only just too high. Best effort so far.       0-0.   22 mins

Good move by Ilkeston ends with Daniel shot going wide. That’s better. Ilkeston counter attack is stopped by a foul on Daniel. Now a Ilkeston free kick 30 yds out.  Walker shot is saved by Battersby.      0-0.   30 mins
