Tamworth FC started life in the Blue Square Premier by holding their own against one of the play-off semi-finalists from last season.

The Lambs travelled away to Broadhall Way on a sun-baked afternoon looking to kick on from their unbeated pre-season, bringing that form into the season.  Tamworth though were behind on 12 minutes after Briscoe was adjudged to bring Laird down.  The penalty was scored by Boylan, sending Alcock the wrong way.

The Lambs were behind but weren’t out and levelled proceedings on 29 minutes when Pritchard scored from the edge of the area.

The second half created a stalemate and the final score was 1-1, giving The Lamb’s their 1st point in the Blue Square Premier, getting the season off to a solid start.
