Blackwell MW beat Boundary Athletic to progress in cup
With their own ground resembling a cabbage patch, Boundary Athletic took the pragmatic decision to concede home advantage and switch their Alfreton Cup game with Blackwell MW to their opponents’ ground.
James Pearce and Jamie Price were each on the scoresheet, but the move ultimately failed to reap its reward as Blackwell edged through to the next round by a narrow 3-2 margin.
