Confirmed: National League Team Of The Weekend!

By Sam Elliott

What a weekend it was - so much so that the National League Team of the Weekend was possibly its most competitive ever!

Salford City were stunned, Leyton Orient lost, Dover came back from the dead and cheer for Chesterfield as they put on a champagne performance!

There’s so much to consider when piecing together a side who have performed the best for their clubs on Saturday.

We pick the brains of club officials, managers and reporters around the grounds to make sure our team is as close to perfect as possible.

But as well all know football is a game of opinions - we rarely all agree!

So join the debate on twitter @TheNationalLge and let us know if you think we’ve missed someone special.

Manager of the Weekend: Martin Allen (Chesterfield)
He made Chesterfield fans’ weekends - but probably wrecked many a coupon. Few people gave his team hope on Saturday. After all, Chesterfield hadn’t won in the National League since August, the same month that Salford City last lost. There was the biggest turn up for the books yet this season.
