Non-league day - A prolific keeper, and 80 year old mascot and pitchside pints

It was a day when a goalkeeper continued his scoring streak, a National League club was knocked out of 'Europe' on penalties and a player saw red for kicking a corner flag. (I love National League :) ).

Dartford's Gibraltar stopper Deren Ibrahim scored the winning goal against Chippenham from halfway. Two years ago he did the same thing against Hungerford. Ibrahim is also on record as conceding the fastest world cup goal, 8.1 seconds, scored by Benteke.

Sutton Utd (incidentally my 2nd side) - was one of two National League sides invited to compete in this year's Scottish Challenge Cup, along with Irish and Welsh clubs. (BBC says this is "Europe" :) ). Sutton Utd lost on penalties in Ireland.

A fine chap marked the start of his ninth decade as a Stockport County fan by leading out his team for their National League North game with Hereford FC on his 80th birthday.

Stansted FC was funing an unnamed player received a red card at Barkingside for kicking over a corner flag after fluffing a cross.

"But let's end on the true aim of Non-League Day - having a good time. Ilkeston Town's Alex Marshall got into the spirit of things as he celebrated his goal in the 3-0 FA Vase win over Heanor the way all the best non-league players do - with a pitchside pint... :) ). www.bbc.com/sport/football/45851897
