Today see's the current league leaders Ramsbottom United arrive at Surrey Street for what iam pleased to say is a top of the table clash.

GNE are 4 points behind our visitors with a game in hand so all to play for.

GNE will be in good spirit after their magnificent win away at Billingham Town in the f.A. Vase last Saturday but must be at their best to hopefully get a win today.

Ramsbottom will be happier after a mid week win away at AFC Blackpool which will help them get over their defeat in the Vase last Saturday away at onsett F.C

The weather today will play a big part as it is wet and windy so we will have to hope GNE adapt better than our visitors to the conditions.

May i congratulate all at Ramsbottom for their great start to the season and welcome everyone who travels with them to Surrey Street for todays game.

Good luck to Paul and the lads and hope to see a good crowd despite the weather.
