Maidenhead: Alan Devonshire delighted with competitive showing

The Magpies boss Alan Devonshire is keen to stress that his part-time side are still in the minority.

Maidenhead United are one of only two sides in the National League who are part-time, but still sit 14th in the table.

They lost their latest match to Torquay 2-1.

"We are part-time," Devonshire told ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Berkshire's Adam Whitty. "Us and Halifax are the only two part-time teams left in this league.

"It didn't show out there [in defeat to Torquay], which is testament to [my players].

"Our fitness levels are decent."

And Devonshire is hoping for a natural intervention to help with the pitch at York Road.

"I just want it to stop raining!

"There's not a lot you can do...it is what it is."
