Late goal sees Atherton Colls beaten at Chadderton

A late goal consigned Atherton Collieries to a narrow 2-1 defeat on the new bespoke 4G Andrew Street surface at Chadderton on Tuesday night. The first half saw the sides cancel each other out totally. Neither shot-stopper had a save of note to make, Kielen Adams having the best Collieries effort but his powerful header landed on the roof of the net. Advertisement Proceedings opened up significantly after the break and Michael Clegg's men soon took the lead. Adams finished clinically from just inside the box, the goal was no more than his performance deserved. This rallied the hosts and they got back on terms with 20 minutes left on the clock. Colls were a little dilatory in defence and were punished to the maximum. The second period had seen the usual pre-season player merry-go-round and two of the Colls replacements, Jack Dorney and Harry Brow,n had decent chances to win the game. Chaddy rode their luck and took the spoils with seconds left on the clock, the goal being 'route one' at its finest. Advertisement Colls assistant manager, Danny Lafferty, was more than satisfied with the team's run out against opposition who look destined to have a major punt at the NWCFL title. With their new opulent surroundings, Chadderton are definitely a football club on the rise. On Saturday, Colls visit Padiham for the third instalment of their mini Tour-de-Lancashire (2pm).

Warrington Rylands pre-season change with home friendly added

Warrington Rylands' first pre-season game is this coming Saturday (Image: Sean Walsh) WARRINGTON Rylands have confirmed a change to their pre-season friendly schedule. In it, they replace an away fixture with a home game against Football League opposition in the shape of Salford City. The League Two side will make the short trip to Gorsey Lane to take on Neil Reynolds' men on Tuesday, July 15, kick off 7pm. Advertisement Rylands' previously announced pre-season schedule had them visiting Silsden but that game will now no longer take place. Salford's visit means Blues will now play three home pre-season games before the Northern Premier League Premier Division season kicks off. Newly-promoted Premier League side Burnley will send a team to Gorsey Lane on Tuesday, July 29, after Atherton Collieries – now managed by former Rylands boss Michael Clegg – visit three days earlier on Saturday, July 26. Rylands play their first pre-season game this coming Saturday as they travel to Euxton Villa.
