East Ham 1 v Ilford 1
Wednesday 16 May 2018
For the second match in a row Ilford were never at the races. We started with a default and registered another to make it hard to get anything from the match but some of the games went away from us early. Steve Abbott registered the only win. Both Julian and Anthony had chances but both over-pressed.
Ilford are safe to return to the fray in Division 2 next season.
