Good life for Rebels

FC UNITED’S management team is lost for words at the team’s start to the season – they cannot find anything to criticise!

The Rebels’ manager Karl Marginson has been at a loss as his side have racked up six straight wins at the top of the North West Counties League, ahead of tonight’s home game with Congleton (7.45pm)

Marginson said: “It has made team talks a bit tough, because we are struggling to pull them up on anything! We can’t even fine them for being five minutes late or anything, because everyone has been dead keen.”

The pressure for places is intense with a strong first-team squad and the reserves top of their division – and even the new youth team began its league season with a 4-0 win.

Right-back Matty Taylor returns from holiday to challenge for a place tonight, while defender Dave Brown has left to join rivals Salford.
