Kevin Wilkin felt his AFC Telford United side got the balance right in their 2-1 victory over Harborough Town, which maintains the Bucks’ precious position among the leading pack in the Southern Central Premier.
TELFORD COPYRIGHT Mike Sheridan - Ellis Myles of AFC Telford United during the Southern League Premier Central fixture between AFC Telford United and Harborough Town at Bowden Park on Saturday, October 19, 2024.But it was that balance which pleased the Bucks boss the most.
The Bucks refused to buckle and Ricardo Dinanga’s late header, coupled with some backs-to-the-wall defending, earned all three points, delighting the manager and justifying his recall of fit-again defender Orrin Pendley into a five-man defensive unit. Wilkin added: “I thought our quality on the bill was far superior in the first period.
The Bucks remain fifth in the table, but have games in hand on all above them bar leaders Kettering Town, who hold a two-point advantage over Wilkin’s men from the same number of matches played. “Individual mistakes through the course of the season can end up costing us, but again, there’s no lack of character, not on today’s evidence.
