Match Info: Chadderton FC (H), Sat 19th Oct, 3pm KO
Like the Shakers, Chadderton are having a great second season in the league. They are in second place, with 41 points from 19 games – five behind leaders Ramsbottom, having played two fewer games.
Bury – fourth, with 32 points from 14 games – beat Chadderton 3-1 under lights at Gigg Lane little more than two weeks ago. Scorer Bryan Ly, was Man of the Match just days after his dramatic late FA Cup penalty beat Radcliffe. The other goals came from Lewis Alessandra and substitute Cam Fogerty.
It will be good to be at Gigg Lane on a Saturday for the first time in four weeks. We were drawn away for this tie, but work on the pitch at the Falcon Fire Stadium – where a 3G pitch is being installed – meant the game has been switched.
The last Saturday home game was our 3-0 defeat of Burscough, also in the Isuzu FA Vase – the leading knock-out competition for tiers 9 and 10. Get your match information below.
In Opposition – Chadderton FC
Chadderton were founder members of the North-West Counties League in 1982, but it took them 41 years to reach the Premier Division.
They finally made it through the Division One North play-offs in 2023, and went on to reach a creditable seventh place in their first season.
They beat the Shakers 3-1 at Gigg Lane and 3-2 at Andrew Street last season, following a glut of late goal drama in both games.
The club traces its history back to 1946 and the launch of Burnley Lane Estate Juniors. It took its present name in 1957 and following a recent Premier League grant, and years of hard work, pitch redevelopments started in September this year to install a 3G pitch. This is due to be ready to play on in 2025.
Footage of the works is provided on the post to the right, with Chadderton playing all home games this season at alternative venues, including Gigg Lane already.
