Mossley Caretaker Begins With Draw

There was a goalless start to the tenure of Mossley’s new caretaker manager on Saturday. Gareth McClelland watched his team draw 0-0 with Woodley Sports at Seel Park.

Previous manager Shaun Higgins left the club last week following a run of ten defeats in 11 matches in the Evo Stik League Division One North. Saturday’s point leaves Mossley 17th in the 23-team table, which you can see here.

There’s a match report at the Mossley website here. The team are back in action tonight away to Bamber Bridge.
