    CHARNOCK-AWAY-2024-GRAPHIC-1-819x1024.jp

    The game against Charnock Richard marks a turning point in our season, and a good performance in this and every remaining fixture is vital if we are to achieve our primary aim: promotion.

    It was a bitter pill to swallow when the Shakers exited their third cup competition in eight days – beaten by Chadderton on penalties in the Isuzu FA Vase.


    So it’s goodbye to the cups, and there’s no time for self-pity as we go back to league action at Charnock Richard’s Mossie Park stadium.

    Several leading players were missing through injuries on Saturday. But the quality the Shakers take into the battle for promotion was plain to see. Not for the first time, however, we didn’t really start to play until the second half.



    Top-scorer Rustam Stepans took the chance for the 48th-minute equaliser superbly. But his 13th goal of the season was a team goal, and clearly showed the difference between the two sides, and on Tuesday he faces up to his former side.


    It should never have gone to penalties. But we didn’t add to our tally, and all credit to battling Chadderton.


    So now for the league. Come on, you Shakers!
