A first win on the road coming at Bradford PA added a very welcome 3 points to the tally. Having gone from top of the league, to bottom of the league, we now find ourselves settling in to a mid table berth. Had someone offered me 12 points from the first 8 games prior to the start of the season, I think I would have accepted the deal.
Our visitors for this game were swept away at home by Ilkeston on Saturday, and are only 2 points better off than Reds. Their first home defeat of the season.
Reds are 12th with 12 points from 8 games Lancaster are 7th with 14 points from 8 games
Reds at home 3-0-1 Lancaster away 2-1-1
Recent Lancaster results: 23 Sept Lancaster 0-4 Ilkeston 16 Sept Lancaster 4-1 Marske Utd (FAC2QR) 12 Sept Lancaster 2-1 AFC Fylde (Lancashire FA Challenge Trophy 1R) 9 Sept Hyde Utd 0-3 Lancaster 2 Sept Lancaster 2-1 Witton Albion (FAC1QR) 28 Aug Atherton Collieries 0-2 Lancaster 26 Aug Lancaster 2-2 Guiseley 22 Aug Lancaster 3-0 Macclesfield 19 Aug Worksop 0-0 Lancaster 15 Aug Radcliffe 4-2 Lancaster 12 Aug Lancaster 2-0 Stafford Rangers
Reds overall this season 5-0-6 Lancaster overall this season 7-2-2
The loss to Ilkeston out a stop to Lancaster's 5 game winning run. Their only other loss in the league was at title chasing Radcliffe. Lancaster will also have one eye on next weekend's FAC3QR fixture at home to Ashton Utd.
Reds have won three of their previous four outings. Both teams have won 4 of their 8 league games so far. Reds are 6 points clear of a relegation place, and only 3 points off a play off place.
With confidence from the weekend away win, let's hope this game can also add to the points tally.
Come on you Reds

Maybe not the best attacking wise (although, I thought Ste Rigg was the clear man of the match), but we absolutely out-worked, out-ran a poor Lancaster side and defended really well. We look so much more solid than we did a month ago.

Terrible weather but a very entertaining game of football. Reds played very well and I am pleased to say that we outplayed Lancaster who offered little. So all in all a great team performance and a well deserved win. Another win on Saturday then lads!
