Had a trip in the sunshine and showers to see Trafford take three points and win promotion. This is the league FC United won last season. Very friendly at Shawe View, if you went on a regular basis you'd be on first name terms with everyone. It's a few miles west of Old Trafford in the quiet suburbs of Flixton. Trafford were two nil up in less than half an hour and looked like getting more. But Congleton scored and from where I was standing it looked like a foul on the goalkeeper. Up until the end Congleton pressed for a second goal but came up against a strong defence. So well done Trafford, but I'm hoping FC United don't play against you next season which is looking increasingly likely. FC lost again 3-2 away to Wakefield.
