RUGBY UNION: HIGH-FLYING Oldham RUFC put their unbeaten record on the line against dangerous opponents tomorrow.
Visitors for the North Lancashire Division One fixture are Burnley who, along with runaway league champions De La Salle, were the only team to take points off Oldham at Manor Park last season.
Oldham are a year wiser now and Burnley are currently in the bottom three. But the visitors’ defensive qualities and solid temperament make them a difficult proposition.
