Witton Albion Are Coming!

Due to strict time constraints (and in no way whatsoever to do with not being bothered) this match preview is going to be as perfunctory as it ever gets on Mossley80. And I know which of you just cheered then!

This will be our first league meeting with Witton Albion for fifteen years, the Cheshire side doing the double over us in the 1990/91 season. Our paths did cross last year in the League Cup, Albion leaving Seel Park with a comfortable 2-0 win.

Of course the visit will mean the return to Seel Park of ex-Lilywhite's manager Benny Phillips, now the assistant at what was the Wincham Park club. Gone are the days of Benny looking like a mediterranean merchant - "Hey... you wanna hire boat" - as with his now slicked back hair and designer stubble (as sported on his previous visit) he bears an uncanny resemblance to Krusty the Klown in his Rory B. Bellows tax evasion guise. If this wasn't brief I'd put a picture up so, for those interested anyway, you'll have to use Google Images to see what I mean.

Prediction: Goodness knows... it depends which Mossley team turns up - and if we've got eleven men. Keeping my fingers crossed that its the good side we saw for twenty minutes on Saturday, a win!
