Stafford Rangers 1 Derby County 1
Pre-season friendly
At: Marston Road
Kick-off: 3-00 pm
Attendance: 749
Weather: warm and sunny
An injury-time equaliser from substitute Nick Linford earned Stafford Rangers a creditable draw aganst Derby County in the Marston Road sunshine.
With a side containing a mix of first-team and younger players, Derby almost took a very early lead. Paris Simmons curled a right-foot shot around the diving Stafford keeper Danny Alcock and was unlucky to see the ball rebound off the right-hand post.
However, the visitors didn't have to wait long before they took the lead. A deep cross from skipper Matty Oakley was knocked back by Steve Howard and Simmons forced the ball home at close range.
Derby, the first Premiership side to visit Marston Road, continued to play a neat passing game and a well-struck drive from Oakley was held by the diving Alcock at the second attempt.
Stafford found their opportunities limited in attack and defender Richard Sutton got forward to fire wide from outside the area.
There was further danger for the Rangers in the 28th minute. David Jones fed the overlapping Richard Jackson who shot across the face of goal and wide of the far right-hand post.
As the interval approached, Howard worked a shooting chance on the edge of the are and forced another good diving save out of Alcock.
Oakley had one further chance to double his side's lead just before half-time when he sent a well-struck drive just wide.
Stafford made a lively start to the second half and within a minute of the restart Wood pulled the ball back to Ingram drove just wide. But the visitors should have extended their lead when unmarked Craig Fagan headed a deep cross over the bar.
Just before the hour mark, Stafford were awarded a free-kick just outside the Derby area but the resulting shot from Grayson was charged down. McAughtrie stayed up with the attack and headed Wood's deep cross over.
Substitutions started to be made at regular intervals and Derby sub Anthony Robertson set up teammate David Jones who rifled a shot arrowly wide of the target.
Robert Duggan, on for Danny Alcock, was called into action to keep out a close-range effort from Fagan.
Derby searched for a second goal in the closing stages. Roberston drilled to the edge of the Stafford area and saw a goalbound shot deflect off a defender at the expense of a corner. Alex Forde's right-wing cross hit Sutton but, fortunately for Rangers, the ball cannoned into the chest of Duggan.
Fagan should have wrapped up the victory at the start of injury time. He ran down the middle past two defenders but shot wide.
Rangers got their equaliser in the third minute of stoppage time whern Linford hit a low 25-yard drive into the bottom-left corner past the diving Ross Atkins.

Rocester 0 Stafford Rangers 1
Pre-Season Friendly
At: Hillsfield
Kick-off: 7-30 pm

Duration: first-half: 45:17; second-half: 48:41
A late goal from substitute Richard Haynes made sure that Stafford Rangers got the 2007/08 pre-season campaign off to a winning start. The 19-year-old striker got into the perfect position in the 88th minute to slot home at close range after Lee Scott knocked down a deep left-wing cross from Ross Draper.
Pre-match thoughts: Good news – first match of the season! Bad news – fun with trying to find out the names of the new trialists. With several first-team regulars having left Stafford, there would no doubt be more trialists than usual. The journey to Rocester is fast becoming a traditional pre-season friendly. In fact this trip was the fifth consecutive season that the fixture had been played. I knew in advance that a programme would be produced for the first time for this fixture and Publicity/Internet man Barry Smith duly obliged with an eight-pager sold for 50p at the turnstile.
Stafford got the game underway attacking the mill end of Hillsfield in the first half.
Chances were scarce during the opening exchanges with Sean Patterson forcing Rocester keeper Rob Powner to turn round a low 10-yard effort at the expense of a corner. At the other end, Danny Alcock, who had a quiet first half, got down to hold a low drive from Paul Millward.
Stafford almost broke the deadlock in the 26th minute. Patterson fired against the bar after getting on the end of Pav Suhaj’s knock-down and Neil Grayson sent a follow-up header wide. The veteran striker quickly went close again with another header.
Kevin Street, who felt he needed the workout to complete his recovery from last season’s injury, tried his luck from 25-yards out after getting the better of marker Neil Reilly. Powner was well positioned to hold the shot.
As the interval approached, Ritchie Sutton got forward to head over and Stuart forced a diving save out of Powner, who got down well to his right. The ball ran free but the keeper recovered before Grayson or Curran pounced.
While Rocester introduced a brand-new side for the second half and a change of kit to yellow and black stripes, Phil Robinson made just three changes at the break though the manager made substitutions at regular intervals during the second half.
Powner again thwarted Rangers in the 53rd minute with another good save. Grayson latched onto a long ball and, when his path was blocked, laid the ball back to Street who fired on target.
Stafford were awarded an indirect free-kick inside the area midway through the second period when Powner picked up a backpass. The ball was tapped to Nathan Talbott who saw a low drive cleared off the line. Draper had another effort blocked in front of goal as Rangers continued to press and eventually Haynes netted the late winner.
The lead could have been doubled in injury time. Phil Robinson, on as a late substitute for Chris Flynn, delivered a dangerous left-wing cross which Draper headed over.

Nuneaton got the game underway attacking the Town End in the first half but Stafford immediately won a corner. Dale Huddlestone, in goal for the visitors, was called into action to block a near-post shot by Oliver Pritchard who had latched onto a pass from Lee Scott.
It was Nuneaton, however, who took an early lead in the 4th minute when Craig Howe hit a 20-yard volley past Danny Alcock.
Alcock produced a good save to keep out a shot with his boot from Eddie Nisevic as the visitors looked to extend their lead and also produced a double save to deny Levi Ramsay.
Stafford got back on level terms in the 19th minute. Scott exchanged a one-two with Steve Bibby to split open the Nuneaton defence and slotted home from 10 yards out. In the next attack, Kevin Street ended a surging run into the area with a low shot which Huddlestone kept out with his legs.
Chances continued to be created and Alcock held Danny Edmond's near post volley at the second attempt. Just after the half hour Tom Muldoon's long throw into the Stafford area led to a near post shot by Edmond which missed the target.
The referee played just over 41 minutes in the first half so I assumed that just 40 minutes each way were being played.
Stafford made a change in the 45th minute, five minutes after the restart as Rob Haynes replaced Russell.
The goal that prove dto be the winner came in the 49th minute. Alex Gibson curled a free-kick around the wall straight into the bottom-right corner. Two minutes later, Tom Evans replaced Bibby.
Chances became scare until Nuneaton had a late opportunity to snatch a draw. Muldoon broke down the right into the area and squared a pass to Ramsay who fired over with just Alcock to beat.
A total of 43 minutes and 53 seconds were played in the second half before the final whistle brought first-team and reserve football to end at Marston Road for another season. There was just Sunday's charity game to come for which I am going to be one of the assistant referees.
