Victory against Heys would bring our points tally over the Christmas period to seven, but we can be sure they won’t go down without a fight. As we’ve seen again and again, teams come to Gigg Lane determined to give us a tough battle. For Heys, a local derby makes the challenge even greater.
It’s disappointing that we don’t go into the game with the prospect of making it nine points over Christmas. But a convincing victory at high-flying Chadderton last weekend and a good performance against Ramsbottom to come from behind twice to draw, sends us into this final festive fixture in good heart.
The Boxing Day gate of 5,800-plus was a huge encouragement, and shows the world that we mean business. So the call goes out again. Please be there and keep Gigg Lane rocking. Up the Shakers!!!

In Opposition – Prestwich Heys
Heys lost 1-0 at Irlam on Boxing Day, but can take heart from their 2-1 home win against Longridge Town last Saturday.
They’re eight points behind second-to-bottom Colne, having scored only 24 goals all season and conceded 61.
In 28 matches, Heys have accrued only 12 points – three wins and three draws. But it’s perhaps significant that two of those three wins have come in recent games, so perhaps some form to draw from heading into this fixture.
