He said: “We travel to Pinchbeck on Saturday with a marginal advantage but we have to show up when it matters now. We have given our all to give ourselves the best chance come the final game of the season, but Saturday's game is where it truly matters now.”
Following that game, Hucknall only have a trip to Kimberley Miners Welfare on Easter Monday and then a home game with Boston Town on April 6 to round off the season.

He said: “It’s a good point which takes us off the foot of the table and keeps our good run of form going.
“We were much better in the first half than on Saturday and competed more which gave us a platform to build upon in the second-half.

"I think a draw was a fair result against a well organised Belper United side. Neither team had the better chances in the end and whilst both teams could have won it, I think both sides will be fairly happy with a point.”
So with three matches left and a narrow edge over Pinchbeck, it remains a tense week and a half for the club and its supporters.
