Ramsbottom to lock horns with Bootle


HIGH-flying Ramsbottom United face a Mersey mission tomorrow as they look to battle back into the fray at the business end of the Vodkat League as they lock horns with Bootle.

The Rams suffered a miserable February with just one win - but got back to winning ways on Tuesday night when they beat Squires Gate thanks to a Lee Connell goal. And a win against Bootle can help them cement their spot in the top four.

United also have silverware on their minds after a bizarre U-turn by the organisers of the Bolton Hospitals Cup. After announcing that United would not be entitled to enter the competition, the organisers have changed their minds and allowed Ramsbottom to enter after all and they will now play Bolton County at home.
