Alderney went top on Saturday courtesy of a 3-1 win over a depleted North after which the home side’s defensive star, Steve Concanen, said: ‘Nothing’s changed...we’ve just to keep on winning.’

Whether that race will go to the very last day of the season is also open to question, but it is looking ever more likely.

For Concanen and co, though, the more pressing challenge is to beat Jersey in the Muratti Vase semi-final at Mount Hale on Saturday.

Alderney expects to give two new caps but will be without key Guernsey-based defender Damian Larkin.
