AFC Telford 1 Stalybridge Celtic 0

Saturday 26th March 2011, 4:54PM GMT.

Telford's Alex Meechan takes the ball towards goal but is stopped by keeper, Jan Budtz, and captain, Rhyn Meynell looks on.

AFC Telford United survived a nervy finish to retain top spot in the Blue Square Bet North with a hard-fought victory.

The Bucks took the lead just a minute before half-time, Andy Brown heading in for his 12th of the season after keeper keeper Jan Budtz had only been able to parry Jon Adams’ effort.

Substitute Alex Meechan hit the post in the second alf but Stalybridge Celtic also had late pressure as Telford hung on for a vital three points.
