    Match Info: Fleetwood Town Ladies (H), Sun 19th Nov, 2pm KO

    Last weekend, the team were victorious with a 4-1 win over local rivals Rochdale to progress to the semi-finals of the Manchester FA Women’s Challenge Cup. This weekend, attention turns to Fleetwood Town Ladies.
    In our opponents’ last league fixture, they were also victorious 4-1 against Salford City FC, with mixed form throughout the season so far. They currently sit 7th place in the league table with 4 wins, 1 loss and 4 draws.
    The team look to maintain momentum following our progression in the Manchester FA Women’s Challenge Cup. The team sit 9th place in the league standings on 7 points, with a positive result seeing a further stretch made away from the bottom of the league. Bury have won 4 and drawn 1 in the last 5 matches in all competitions.
    Last season, both teams played each other in the league cup and the game was a draw after 90 minutes, with Bury losing out on penalties. This time around, the ladies look to get a result and produce a solid performance in the league to make up for last season’s upset.
    The game will kick off at 2pm, taking place at Kearsley Academy in Bolton due to a waterlogged pitch at Gigg Lane.
    Let’s hope the team can produce a solid performance and pick up another victory!

    Match Info: Ramsbottom United (A), Sat 18th Nov, 3pm KO

    Following a bye in the last round of the Macron Cup, on Saturday we travel to near-neighbours Ramsbottom United in the second round of the competition.

    It’s back-to-back cup matches for Dave McNabb’s side after Tuesday’s league fixture with Pilkington was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

    McNabb is taking a full squad up the A56 to take on the Rams, but could look to introduce players from our Under 23s squad who are also available for selection.

    Ramsbottom come into the game off the back of an FA Vase win on penalties against Bottesford Town, last Saturday and despite the club proximity, it’s the first time the clubs have faced each other competitively, a number of friendlies have been played down the years at the iconic Harry Williams Riverside Stadium.

    The Rams have won three of their last six games, all of those wins have been in cup competitions. Twice in the FA Vase and the other being in the previous round of the Macron Cup in a 3-0 win over Nelson at the HWRS.

    Adults – £9
    Concessions – £5 (U16s & Over 65s)
