We have to bounce back from Tuesday night’s disappointing draw at Irlam, and especially because a win would take us to the top of the table.
That’s why we need our fans to come out in numbers to get Gigg Lane bouncing!
We are currently third – two points behind Chadderton on top and one behind Ramsbottom United in second. Neither has a league game this weekend, so…Up the Shakers – to the top!!!
The ups and downs of recent results have been frustrating for everyone, but we just have to get on with it. We’re having a great season, and everyone is signed up to the promotion challenge.
We’re in a great position, lying third below Chadderton on 59 points from 28 matches and second-placed Ramsbottom on 57 from 26. So our 56 from 26 matches puts a massive premium on a couple of games over the Christmas period.
The results against Chadderton at Avro next Friday and Ramsbottom at home on Boxing Day might just be season-defining. Victory against Abbey Hey would be a great start to this sequence. So…Up the Shakers!!!

In Opposition – Abbey Hey
After quite a good start their first season back in the Premier Division, Abbey Hey are moving in quite the wrong direction.
Since we beat them 7-1 in August, they have slumped from 10th in the table to 14th.
They have won only one game in their last six, and have lost all the other five.
The Gorton club returned to the Premier Division by winning last season’s play-offs in Division One South.
