DARWEN boss Steve Mullen has urged his side to make their games in hand count as he prepares for a tough trip to Bootle.

The Anchor Ground club have three games in hand over top of the table Winsford United and Runcorn Linnets and if they win them all they will be a point behind the leaders.

He said: "I've told the lads we now have goals to go for.

"Our match was abandoned last week but results have been going our way.

"So we know if we win our games in hand we will be right up there."
