Here we go again! Possibly...
With the weather forecast for Tuesday changing almost by the hour ("Rain! Frost! Sunshine! No... definitely frost. Or maybe sunshine with strong winds, etc.") it's touch and go at the moment as to whether this rearranged clash with actually go ahead.
If it does, then along with the Grantham game in less than a fortnight's time, it's probably the closest we'll get to a guaranteed three points for the remainder of the season. That's not meant in an arrogant way. Radcliffe won't come to roll over and die (though it would be awfully nice of them to do so in the metaphorical sense) but league positions don't lie. I know we're exactly level with them but with the likes of Guiseley, Fleetwood and Witton on the horizon, this fixture presents Mossley with one of their best opportunities to close the eight point gap on Kendal and Leek.
This season Radcliffe have managed just one win on 'foreign soil' in the league and have the second worst away record in the Unibond Premier. Rapidly skipping over the fact that we have the worst home record, Radcliffe also have no wins in eleven games and come to Seel Park on the back of three succesive defeats. If this isn't reason enough for thinking that we should have a better than 50/50 chance of winning then I don't know what is.
Prediction: A must win that we will win. Having watched Radcliffe's game at the weekend against Ossett I can honestly say that Mossley have nothing to worry about.
In fact I'd go as far as saying that if we lose to Borough then we might as well pack up for this season, wave goodbye to the Unibond Premier Division and start planning for whatever the 2007/08 campaign will bring.
