FOOTBALL IS BACK. The new way of social distancing activities down at โThe Laneโ. Temperature checks, equipment disinfected, hand sanitiser, 2 metre distancing markers, face masks, gloves and maximum numbers all adhered to
One of our dedicated groundsmen still cutting the pitches last night at 20.00, in the dark with headlights on. โI needed to get them cut for the lads, before the rain tomorrow,โ was his comment. What a club.
Tomorrow from 18.45 is the official opening of our new 100 seater stand & floodlights. A 60 min game between a Chairmanโs 11 v Secretaryโs 11 followed by another 60 min game between our 2017 U18s Lancashire Cup winners v Current U21s. 2 great games down at The Lane.

We can now announce the appointment of our new first team manager James Etherington.
James brings a wealth of professional and semi-professional playing and coaching experience to the club.
He also brings enthusiasm to improve the club both on and off the pitch.
After a short break for Christmas and New Year, work continues down at โThe Laneโ. Following on from our 100 seater stand and floodlights, we are installing hard standing behind the 3G side goal and around to the stand.
