Our women’s first team hosts Curzon Ashton FC Women this coming Sunday, where the Shakers will be looking to progress through to the third and final qualifying round of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup.

There is no respite for the Shakers and the games keep coming! We follow our cracking 3-0 Emirates FA Cup victory at Blyth Spartans on Saturday by taking on local rivals Ramsbottom United at the Harry Williams Stadium in Rammy on Tuesday evening (kick-off 7.45pm). At Blyth, second-half goals from Alex Cherera, Bebeto Gomes and Connor Pye saw off a team who have previously enjoyed many Cup successes and laid to rest a nearly 30-year-old ghost, by avenging Spartans two-nil victory at Gigg Lan

Following four games on the road, we’ve got a busy run of home games coming with three (possibly four) home games in a ten-day period.   After our away win at Blyth in the FA Cup yesterday, our game on Saturday 28th September vs FC St Helens will be postponed, in order to play in the Third Qualifying Round Fixture.

Following yesterday’s terrific 3-0 win away at Blyth Spartans in the Second Qualifying Round of the Emirates FA Cup, we will be entered into tomorrow’s (Monday 16th) draw for the next round. The draw is completed by 1pm and we will have this with you as soon as we have it.

We’d like to place on record our thanks to Macauley Wilson, who has departed the club today by mutual consent. Macauley joined us from Bamber Bridge in the summer, with a wealth of experience. He made nine competitive appearances for the club, scoring once against AFC Liverpool. Living in the Blackpool area, he was travelling a distance to commute for training & matches and has car shared with fellow players who live in the area but given recent injuries to those players, it’s foun

Bring it on! That’s the spirit in the camp as the Shakers face the long journey to the North East tomorrow to face Blyth Spartans in the FA Cup.   Yes, they’re a club with a great history and in a higher league.

But that last kick draw with two of our players in the sin bin boosted morale on and off the pitch.
