Orrin Pendley is pleased his goalscoring form is helping AFC Telford United climb the table.

The 28-year-old centre-back netted the opening goal in the Bucks’ 2-0 win over Long Eaton on Saturday – the fourth time he’s found the net this season.

“I probably should have been running back to get into position, but I just had a feeling Foxy was going to beat his man and put the ball in,” Pendley explained. “Thankfully that feeling was right, and I got across the keeper at the near post and nodded it in.” Pendley grabbed the all-important opening goal at New Bucks Head against bottom-of-the-league Long Eaton, who had frustrated the Bucks for nearly an hour.

“It was a tough game,” Pendley admitted. “Probably more so than it looked. People might have thought that because they’re bottom of the league we would win by three or four, but they made it tough for us.”
