Mossley aim for victory and play-offs

MOSSLEY player-manager Steve Halford is hoping to have a near full-strength squad for tonight’s crunch home Evo-Stik League Divsion One North clash against Farsley.

With four games of the season left, the race for a play-off spot is intense.

After Saturday’s disappointing goalless draw at Burscough, returning players should give Halford a boost for a game they will be favourites to win.

Kayde Coppin should be back from injury after missing the weekend, as should Sam Hind and Lewis Nightingale.

“It’s absolutely imperative we get the three points tonight,” sid Halford. “It’s still so tight at the top, but Ramsbottom play Cammell Laird tonight too, so at least someone will be dropping points around us.

“Unfortunately it is out of our hands again now after Saturday’s result, but if we win all our remaining games then it’ll take a big effort from someone else to keep us out of the top five.”
