Phelan returns for revenge mission
Date published: 21 January 2011
RUGBY UNION: OLDHAM RU are on a revenge mission in the North Lancs and Cumbria Division tomorrow (2.15pm kick-off).
The Manor Park outfit go to Didsbury Toc H, who clinched a last-gasp 22-20 win in the reverse fixture in October.
Gary Phelan (second row) and winger Will Mellor are in Oldham’s XV, but Luke Roscoe (back row) and utility back Phil Graham are unavailable. Lee Kemp (back row) and Jake Watson (front row) are added to the squad.
Toc are mid-table and safe from relegation, whereas Oldham are in a battle to beat the drop.
With the next three fixtures against tough opposition — Fleetwood, Heaton Moor and Aspatria — coach Guy Lovegreen is targeting this game for three, much-needed points.
CLUB president Paul Walsh is hosting a players reunion on Saturday, February 5 (1pm). Players past and present are welcome.
