Was great just to be nominated for the 2nd week in a row,but to win it is fantastic. @ampthillfc and @DunstableTownFC had big unbeaten runs like us, but I think beating a quality team near the top of the table like @MKCollegeFooty might have swung it for us. Flying flag for Div 2.
SSML Team Of The Day .@ampthillfc - 7-1 win at London Tigers.@BovingdonFC - 3-1 win at MKCFA to extend unbeaten league run to eight.@BroadfieldsUtd - 2-0 win at Harpenden Town.@DunstableTownFC - 3-1 win at Crawley Green, to extend unbeaten league run to nine.
