Radcliffe v Ilkeston Town updates from 3 o’clock.
Ilkeston have a tough one today against the unbeaten league leaders.
Radcliffe have won 8 and lost just once. Their home record is played 4, won 4. So it’s asking a lot of Ilkeston to come away from the Neuven Stadium with anything. But they’re going to try, and they’ll have a bus load of believing supporters cheering them on.
