Warrington Town: Preview

Posted on: Mon 08 Mar 2010

The Shaymen head west on Tuesday evening and face Warrington Town at their Cantilever Park ground which sits on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal.And, an improvement to their recent away results would be a huge boost as the run in towards the end of the season gathers pace.

Saturday's emphatic win over Prescot Cables and the results elsewhere in the Unibond Division One North sees FC Halifax Town sitting in 2nd place, just 4 points behind Lancaster City but with a game in hand and a home game against their nearest rivals to come in April.

Titles are not won in early March but Tuesday's results could have a huge bearing.Whilst all eyes will be on the result from Warrington, there is a huge game elsewhere with Lancaster travelling to North Wales to face Colwyn Bay.

Warrington are an improved side on last season and they currently lie in 11th position with 7 wins on home soil form 15 attempts, the most recent one being last Saturday when Radcliffe Borough beat them 2 v 1.And, they have a couple of recent additions to their squad with Manager Joey Dunn bringing in former Northwich Victoria and Woodley Sports keeper Ben Connett to replace Richie Mottram who walked out at half time during a recent match.The other is former Aston Villa, Everton and Bolton Wanderers midfielder Gareth Farrelly who'll be looking to use his premiership experience to boost Warrington's outside chances of a play off place.

For Neil Aspin's team Tom Baker is available before his suspension from Saturday's red card commences but few changes are expected to the team that beat Prescot.

A sizeable following will head to Warrington but for any fans unable to attend the game the official website is providing regular updates.Log onto www.halifaxafc.co.uk from 7.30pm
