Fleckney Athletic have struggled somewhat since gaining promotion into this division. They were sitting second bottom in the league table last season, when Covid-19 caused the season to be brought to a premature halt, having won just one of their ten games played at the time. This season, they have made little improvement, sitting bottom of the table, with just two wins from their twenty matches played coming into this.

The visitors, starting the day fifth in the table, were just too strong. Fleckney competed well, but just lacked that little bit of quality in the final third. Blaby & Whetstone were good value for their 0-2 halftime lead and they put the game out of reach when they added a third goal eleven minutes into the second half.
