Chesterfield's FC Britannia cemented their claim to being Derbyshire's finest Sunday League side with a resounding victory over Derby's Field Lane FC, at one of my favourite grounds, Christchurch Meadow (now the Marston's Stadium) in Belper.
Britannia, the current holders of this cup, were again riding high in the Chesterfield and District League and Field Lane were sitting in a position to challenge for the Derby Taverner's League title - as they both served up a footballing treat for 65 supporters on this very cold April day.
Unfortunately for Field Lane, Britannia had too much about them to lose their grip on this title. From their powerful 'keeper, through their solid defence and skilful midfield, to their clinical finishers' Britannia looked to be a class above and never looked like losing.
