Convincing win for the Shots

Aldershot have defeated Woking 4-0 this afternoon and are now second in the Conference table. Woking stay seventh.

It was Woking's worst defeat for two years. They were totally out-played in the first half and although they staged somewhat of a come back in the second half, fate was not on their side as they went down to ten men.

The revised table is as below:

Barnet 36 - 78
Aldershot 38 - 63
Halifax 35 - 60
Carlisle 34 - 59
Accrington 36 - 59
Stevenage 35 - 59
Woking 35 - 58
Hereford 34 - 56
Exeter 34 - 54
Morecambe 35 - 54
Crawley 36 - 54

Tomorrow there are ten Conference games including Hereford/Northwich.However only one game involves two of the play-off challengers so assuming the Bulls win they could find that they are still outside the play-off zone.

It is the Carlisle/Halifax that many supporters will keep on eye on. Carlisle have picked up several results recently, including a 3-0 win at Canvey last Friday, after a disappointing start to the new-year. They will start favourites to defeat Halifax, who could only draw at home to Tamworth last Friday, although a draw would help the Bulls. This game is live on Sky with a 5.35pm start.

Of the other challengers Crawley could slip up at Dagenham and Stevenage may also drop points at Tamworth. But Accrington will be expected to defeat York, Morecambe should return from Leigh with three points, and Exeter must fancy their chances against Farnborough at home.

Only if both Stevenage and Accrington lose, will Hereford, assuming they win, move as high as fifth place.
