Incredible photo. Both teams relegated on the final day because they drew 3-3. Alfreton were 3-0 up after 60 minutes and looked certain to stay up, Curzon had created literally nothing until it was 3-0. Which obviously means the most logical thing to happen is Curzon score three to relegate Alfreton. Due to late goals in other games it turns out Alfreton would've been relegated even with a win but Curzon still had a chance if they won, which they must of known because when they made it 3-3 in the 97th minute or whatever because they won the ball back almost instantly, went through on goal and had a shot cleared off the line with the last chance of the game. It's also quite funny that these two ended up meeting on the opening day of the season in the NPL (Curzon won 1-0) Worth mentioning Chris Wilder kindly let former Alfreton keeper George Willis return to the club for this game too. I think he's the U21 coach at Sheffield United? But he had spent the last few years at Alfreton. I think that'll be the only game i'll ever watch where both teams are relegated after drawing with each other
