Completing the Circle?

A week after Newcastle made their second long sojourn of the season to Seel Park, its Bridlington’s turn to travel south west yet again.

This is the fixture that was originally due to take place in the second week of December but thanks to the weather, what was scheduled to be their second visit of the season at the end of that month became their first... if that makes sense.

Whether it does or not you'll certainly remember that second/first game as it was the last time Mossley tasted victory in a competitive match. Or to be more blunt, all seven games played in the meantime.

Since that match Town have undergone a change of personnel on the sidelines which has seen their chairman ‘do a Dave Pace’ and take over as team manager. And he’s not done too bad a job either as Bridlington's form has steadily improved.

Thanks to Chorley's upturn in fortunes though they still remain second from bottom of the league. Mossley sit ten points above them in 12th position but with many of the teams below them having games in hand, the reality is that this match is a ‘six pointer’ (or is it a nine pointer if we’re playing them three times in the league this season?).

Prediction: Mossley's win less streak to come full circle with three points for the Lilywhites.
