This month’s Vanarama National League North winners certainly know how to inspire when the chips are down.
We’ve got three big winners for March and when their clubs needed someone to stand up and be counted, they led from the front.
Peterborough Sports may not be involved at the right or wrong end, but that’s got a lot to do with them sticking together when things got tough.
When long-serving boss Jimmy Dean departed to Scunthorpe at the end of January, it could
easily have derailed their season. Instead, Michael Gash and Luke Steele rallied their troops after taking over and inspired an uplift.
February may have been a month to forget but they’ve very much turned a corner and when a struggle looked on, Peterborough ended March just two wins from the play-off places.
Sports saw off then-title chasing Chester, Bradford PA and Leamington while also claiming points at Spennymoor, Farsley Celtic and Kettering Town.
Joint-boss Gash also chipped in with goals and the pair are not just producing off the pitch,
they’re doing it on the pitch too.

Things were looking grim at Boston United not so long ago.
The Pilgrims’ choice was not the Northern League - but that’s where the club and their super
new stadium looked to be heading after a real slump.
It’s not been the season anyone wanted after coming within 90 minutes of a return to the
Vanarama National League last season, but things have at least turned around.
Signed on loan from Hull City in January, Billy Chadwick has been on his own survival mission.  He scored four times in March and chipped in with two assists, that’s six goal involvements in five matches.
He hit the net against Spennymoor, Blyth Spartans, Southport and Leamington to help edge his team away from trouble.
They say never fall in love with a loan player but it’s already proving hard at Boston.
