Buckley rings changes

CHADDERTON manager Paul Buckley must change a winning team at home to high-flying Daisy Hill in the first division of the Vodkat North-West Counties League tomorrow.

Buckley wanted to name the side which won 2-1 at Formby in the FA Vase last Saturday.

But he must make a switch up front after striker Danny Bell came off with a nasty ankle injury, while defender Matthew Walton is on holiday.

Buckley has Danny Shaw back from holiday, but Gareth Morris and Ian Knapman remain on the injured list and Andy Pheby is still banned.

Chadderton reserves are away to AFC Liverpool.




MOSSLEY have a rearranged UniBond League, first division north match against Leigh Genesis at Seel Park tomorrow.



The fixture has been brought forward from February because both clubs have been eliminated from the FA Cup.

Mossley have won only one of their first six league matches and lie 17th in the 22-club division.

Manager Chris Willcock blames the club’s off-the-field troubles for the poor start.

Uncertainty resulted in players leaving and signings delayed and Willcock is confident things will improve once he is able to fully address his team’s lack of goals.

“All the strikers I want are tied up at clubs which is partly down to the late start I had in building the team for the season,” he said.




OLDHAM Town have no match this weekend.
