Boundary Park for youth team

The win, coupled with Carlisle's home defeat against Preston, has ensured a top two finish but whilst there is still a chance we will keep going for that title. We've two away games left and both must be won.

The first of those games is this Saturday morning against Oldham and the game will be played at Boundary Park rather than the training ground. If we can win that, and do the double over the Latics, then we travel to Preston two days later with a chance of winning the league.

Preston though are the form team with the two wins against us and Carlisle last week, but both games will be difficult.

In other games, Stockport won at Bury last Wednesday and on Saturday Macclesfield were victors over Wigan with the other two matches drawn.

With Wrexham and Burnley now contesting the title, Carlisle have finished third after fading away in the last few weeks and Preston will claim fourth place no matter what the result against us next week.

Last week's results and the upcoming fixtures are all shown below.
