Tomorrow afternoon dollars to return to the action after the Emirates FA Cup exploits over the past two games when we travel to Whitchurch Alport for an extremely important league fixture kicking off at 3 pm.

Whitchurch are currently fourth in the league table having won three of their opening five games drawing and losing one and having gone out of the emirates FA Cup at the extra preliminary round Losing five nil after replay.

The league season out with a 2-0 win at Dudley Town, followed up by mid week. Draw at 1-1 with Wolverhampton Casuals after the Emirates FA Cup exploits Whitchurch secured a great 2-0 win at Highgate United. Alex Higgins and Jack, Sheward. Shay Palmer was sent off for Highgate. Bank Holiday Monday Whitchurch suffered their first loss of the season away at Romulus 1-0 in a close game. Last Saturday Whitchurch welcomed Tividale to their Yockings Park ground two Christophe Aziamale goals sent Tividale home on the end of 2-1 defeat leaving Tividale rooted to the bottom of the table with a single point from six games.

Whitchurch Alport are a well organised well drilled side as we discovered last season, drawing to 2-2 at Yockings Park last season after Darlaston conceded a disputed free kick in injury time which Whitchurch scored. In return fixture at the Paycare Stadium earlier this year Darlaston win 2-1.

After the two Emirates FA Cup games in the past week, Darlaston players will be suffering from very tired legs, especially having played extra time on Wednesday evening, add into the equation the loss of Ben Priest to a hamstring injury and long-term injury, victim, Reece Mason manager, Dean Gill is acted quickly bringing in Tom Turton from Chasetown.

Darlaston Town will travel up deep into Shropshire once again as underdogs Whitchurch are extremely well supported team and a good crowd is expected at Yockings Park.

Admission tomorrow will be Adults £7, Concessions £4, U16's £1 (Cash and Card payments both accepted)
