DARWEN manager Steve Wilkes praised his side after Wednesday night's memorable 3-2 win over Alsager - and urged them to give him more of the same tomorrow at Chadderton.

"They really rolled their sleeves up and I couldn't praise them enough," said the manager.

"We showed what we could do and I just hope it can kickstart our season now."

"We had never won at Alsager and had never even scored there before," said Wilkes.

"I told them they were rubbish after the Bacup game but from one to 11 they were fantastic on Wednesday."
