Match Report
Belper Town went into this match looking for a good performance, after last weeks crushing defeat, which left them mid table. This young Belper team have never suffered such a set back, during two successful seasons and all eyes were on them to see how they responded.
Belper started quickly and dominated possession, without rarely creating a chance in the first five minutes, apart from two long range efforts from Harry Jones and Lewis Elliott.
Alex Wild then went close, with a neat turn of skill in the penalty area, but the keeper did well to save and their keeper was forced into another save, with a rocket of a half volley from Harry Jones.
Stocky Rams took some time to get going, but were now starting to look dangerous and there first shot hit the side netting, much too the relief of keeper Sam Gilbert, who looked like he had it covered.
Belper were unlucky just before half time, when striker Alex Wild latched into a pass into the area and with the deftest of touches, just hit the post and watched as the ball went out of play.
Belper were unlucky not to be leading at half time, but more importantly, Belper were playing with a lot more confidence and turning in one of their better performances. Sam Gilbert had little to do and this was down to a rock solid defence, including Declan Barry, Dominic Attenborough, assisted by Aaron Reeves.
Half Time 0-0
Belper started as they finished, with two early shots on target, but Stocky continued to impress, particularly on the break.
The deadlock was nearly broken, when defender Declan Barry shot from well within his own half, which the keeper just saved and Alex Wild was denied seconds later, after a brilliant through ball by Dominic Attenborough.
Belper Keeper Sam Gilbert proved his worth, when Stocky went clean through, but Sam saved bravely at the strikers feet, to put the ball out for a corner.
Belper finally took the lead, when Alex Wild, who had his own chance to score, unselfishly passed wide to Harry Jones, who made no mistake from 12 yards. ( 0-1)
The lead was nearly doubled when Elliot Moore shot from the edge of the box into the side netting.
Just like the first half, Stock Rams improved as the game went on and they equalised, following a good run and shot, which left Sam with no chance. (1-1)
Belper dominated the last five minutes, but couldn’t find a way through the Stocky keeper. The game ended in a draw, which didn’t really reflect the possession and chances created during the match. However, the players had done their bit and responded to the coach’s pre match talk.

Match Report
Belper Town returned to action in their first match of the season, against a Toton side they have never met before.
Both teams started cautiously and it wasnt until the 5th minute, that Belper created the first chance, when Elliot Moore had a shot, which produced a good save from the Toton keeper. From his throw, Toton went on the attack and in turn, produced an excellent save from Belper keeper Sam Gilbert.
Elliott had another chance a couple of minutes later, after good battling by striker Alex Wild, but shot narrowly wide.
Alex turned provider again, when he played a lovely ball to Lewis Elliott on the wing, whose shot was well saved by the keeper and the move was repeated a couple of seconds later.
Belper then had defender Harry Jones to thank for a great last ditch tackle, which prevented a Toton striker having a clear route to goal.
Toton were now starting to look dangerous on the break and only excellent defending by Dominic Attenborough and Declan Barry prevented them taking the lead.
Belper continued to carry the most threat, but the match remaind goaless, even after several close efforts from Lewis, Alex and Elliot.
