It was going to happen sooner or later but Mossley's unbeaten streak turned into a losing run, albeit a run that currently stands as one game, at (deep breath) The Chorley Nissan Victory Park Stadium.
For someone who didn't go, what went on during the match besides the number of goals scored is hard to fathom out due to the acute disparity of opinions between both fan bases. The official Mossley match report and comments from attendees on the club forum insinuate that Mossley were paragons of the beautiful game; misunderstood angels denied a point through shadowy machinations.
The Chorley take on proceedings though tells a tale of the extreme opposite, one which makes the Lilywhites out to be unpunished thugs and the kind of team that no-one wants to see the club they support labelled as.
The truth about what actually happened - as is often the case when there are two differing points of rose tinted views - probably lies somewhere in between. There are however two indisputable facts. The first is that Mossley lost to a penalty awarded to their hosts in the 94th minute of the match and the second is that given the animosity which has sprung up, the return fixture at Seel Park in March is going to be very interesting to say the least.
