Incoming: Declan Daniels & Ethan Kachosa
With both Benito Lowe and top-scorer Andy Briggs sidelined with injury, the manager has dipped into the market for a goalscorer. And currently in the NWCFL, there is no-one is finding the net like Daniels who has netted 33 times for Irlam already so far this season.
His tally makes him the leading scorer in the league, with 21, as well as 12 goals across 10 cup fixtures, and a total of four hat-tricks this term alone.
