Colne 0 Squires Gate 5
THE size of task facing the new Colne manager was illustrated to the full in this dreadful performance.
Colne never got in the game as Squires Gate coasted to an emphatic victory, the home side's heaviest this season.
Colne officials say they could be in a position to make an appointment within the next two weeks and have confirmed that current caretaker boss John Lister has applied for the post.
Whoever gets it faces an uphill task in trying to drag Colne away from the bottom reaches of the North West Counties Second Division table.
They were three down before half time and never looked in any way like shaping a fightback, two further second half goals simply adding to the gloom.
