Quakers looking for victory at Alfreton

Can we move into the play offs?

Darlington head to Alfreton on Saturday looking to push their way into the play off places.

Quakers go to the Impact Arena in joint seventh place in the table, behind Southport on goal difference, and a point behind sixth placed York City. There are seven clubs chasing two promotion places, and only four points cover them.

Quakers go into the game with just one defeat in the last ten, so clearly they're one of the form teams.

Here's an interview with manager Alun Armstrong:
