We return to league action tomorrow evening, with the visit of South Liverpool to Gigg Lane.
 
Dave McNabb’s side made it 10 games unbeaten in all competitions, with a 2-0 win away at Garforth Town, booking in our place in the Second Qualifying Round of the FA Cup. Alex Cherera & Lewis Alessandra scored on either side of the break. Cherera now has five FA Cup goals this season.

The draw has just been made for the next round, and we head to either Campion or Blyth Spartans in the next round on Saturday 14th September. They replay this Wednesday, following a 1-1 draw at the weekend.
 
Focusing back on the league and ahead of Tuesday’s game, we sit five points off the league leaders Ramsbottom United, with three games in hand created by our cup exploits in both the FA Cup and FA Vase this season so far.


You can hear from Chris Watts and Josh Gregory, as well as catchup on the match highlights below:
