Home mission for Lovegreen’s side
Date published: 20 January 2012
RUGBY UNION:
OLDHAM, buoyed by a hard-fought win at Bolton last weekend, entertain Trafford MV in a rearranged North Lancashire Division One fixture tomorrow (2.15pm kick-off).
The match was postponed in mid-December when part of the clubhouse roof at Manor Park was blown off.
No such problems are envisaged this time round as Oldham take on the team directly above them in the table.
Guy Lovegreen’s side are hoping to avoid a double dose of disappointment against their opponents.
Trafford emerged victorious in the reverse fixture by a 34-7 scoreline when Oldham were guilty of gifting their opponents too many penalties.
Ross Cooper, Mike Crouch, Dean McEwan and Phil Graham are unavailable for the hosts, but Brian Massey, Lovegreen and Kris Jones return to the squad.
