Vauxhall Motors looking to stay top of the table with visit to Padiham

Vauxhall Motors will travel to Padiham on Tuesday evening as they look to keep their place at the top of the NWCFL Premier Table.

The Motormen fired four past Longridge Town, away from home, on Saturday.

Padiham, nicknamed The Caldersiders as their previous ground was situated on the banks of the River Calder, are positioned 13th in the table and now play their games at The Ruby Civil Arena.

Their manager, Michael Morrison, is assisted by former player Ben Hoskin and the club was resurrected in 1949 after folding in 1916 when finding themselves unable to compete with clubs in nearby larger towns such as Burnley.

Morrison’s side have only registered one win from their last six outings and will look to bounce back from a three-nil thrashing away to West Disbury when they host The Motormen.

PADIHAM TOP GOALSCORER:
Joel Brownhill, 13 in 21 games.
However, Joel Melia is another one to watch as he has received the most man of the match awards this season.

Blue.
