Colin Daniel and Lindon Meikle in attendance
Saturday was sunny and warm -- Sunday it was windy and cold. Don't you love the English climate!! This was big coat, scarf and gloves weather, but unfortunately they had all been left at home! Met up with Brian Dennett in the car-park, and managed to grab a few words with blogger extaordinaire Rob Waite, Eastwood Town's Lindon Meikle and Macclesfield Town midfielder Colin Daniel. Also grabbed a few words with our good friend Rob Townsend, who was running a line. Sat and had a chat for 10 minutes or so with one of my former Mansfield Town favourites Andy White, White, White - now playing for Long Eaton United.

The game did nothing to warm the 237 hardy souls present at the New Manor Ground. A goal in each half and that was your lot. A very niggly game with the Referee's whistle to the fore -- and corners? I reckon there were at least 20 - but most of the deliveries in were poor.
Hopefully Rob Waite will do a good write up on his excellent 66pow blog, because I can't be bothered! Worksop saw Adrian Hawes clear off the line on 8, then the post saved Hucknall two minutes later. The Tigers took the lead on 28, when RYAN MALLON powered home at the far post after Ben Tomlinson had fired the ball across the face of the goal. H-T 1-0

LIAM GARNER brought Hucknall level on 46, heading powerfully home from Keiren Debrower cross. After that, we may as well have gone for a Sunday afternoon kip ....there were a few chances, but none that had anyone too excited. F-T 1-1
