Match Info: Charnock Richard (H), Tues 30th Apr, 7.45pm KO

The play-offs it is, and after a long wait, it is Charnock Richard we face on Tuesday night for a place in Saturday’s final against either Wythenshawe Town or Padiham. With over 3,500 tickets gone and the South Stand almost sold out, it is going to be a cracker under the mid-Spring lights at Gigg Lane. Get on down to cheer the lads on, you can be the difference.

It has been a long old wait since our game at Ramsbottom on the final game of the season, however tonight’s visitors have fitted in an extra four games in seven days, winning all four and seizing a place in the end of season showdown in the process.

No doubt the Greens will be heading to Gigg Lane full of confidence, on the back of a good run and having been undefeated against the Shakers in all four encounters this season so far. The last game was in a completely different setting however, with Charnock visiting an empty Gigg Lane and left with a 2-2 draw as we saw out the second game of a two-game stadium ban.

But we can expect a fiery atmosphere, as manager Dave McNabb is looking for a fast start and explaining that the lads go into the game in good spirits in his pre-match video which can be found below.

In the event of a draw after 90 minutes, we go straight to penalties this evening!

We have all four-sides of the ground open for the first time since 2019 for this clash, with no availability in the Main Stand, and South Stand set to be ticket only. Pay-on-the-gate turnstiles will be available in the Cemetery End. Get all your match information below.
Pre-Match Interview – Dave McNabb
In Opposition – Charnock Richard
In 1933 the Chorley Sunday League became the Chorley Alliance League and a Charnock Richard village team was entered, but on the outbreak of the Second World War the league and team were temporarily suspended.

At the end of the War, in 1945, the Chorley Alliance League was reformed along with Charnock Richard F.C. The team proved to be a tremendous success, eventually winning the league title in the 1947-48 season, losing only two games, and scoring 107 goals. This success prompted them to try and run two teams, but they ran into difficulties and the club closed at the end of the 1948-49 season.

In 1955, under the leadership of Ron Wilcox, the present club was reformed, and once again played in the Chorley Alliance League.

Charnock progressed to the North West Counties League in 2016-17 after finishing as runners-up in the West Lancashire League in the previous season and won promotion to the Premier Division of the NWCL in the first season when finishing runners up in Division 1. In the 21-22 season the club won the North West Counties League, League Challenge Cup.

Last season, Charnock finished 11th in NWCFL Premier Division, making the play-offs this season with six straight wins, scoring 18 and conceding only two. Widemen, Nathan Nickeas and Rustam Stepans are ones to watch with 30 and 24 goals respectively this season.
