Kevin Wilkin’s delight for Telford goalscorers
AFC Telford United boss Kevin Wilkin was full of praise for Bucks goalscorers Lewis Salmon and Kai Williams.
The pair netted in Saturday’s 2-1 victory at Banbury United – despite being down to 10 men for more than an hour.
And Wilkin revealed his pleasure at Salmon digging in at right-wing-back after the dismissal of Luke Burke.
“He’s not accustomed to that role,” said Wilkin. “He sent me a text in the week, a little bit frustrated at his lack of minutes, but what a great boy. He worked his socks off, and I’m just delighted for him because he’s a great lad and needs to be out there gaining minutes.”
And the boss also hailed Williams’ winner.
“I’m delighted for Kai,” he said. “It’s a fantastic moment, a fantastic goal and something that we needed as a group, to go on and win the game.”
