Motors host Hednesford

By Ethan Hoijord

Vauxhall Motors take on Hednesford this weekend, at home, in Northern Premier League Division One West action.

The Motormen have been aiming to get used to life without successful manager Mick McGraa, who left for Bootle two weeks ago.

McGraa guided the club to promotion this summer following last year’s fantastic Cheshire Senior Cup run to the final.

His former assistant Joe Heath has took to the dugout for the games whilst a comprehensive search for the next appointment continues. The selection may be confirmed in time for this upcoming game, there has been many great candidates apply.

Hednesford will be looking to claim all three points at The VanEupen Arena as at the time of writing they sit just above the drop zone, with those below them having two or three games in hand.

All support for The Motormen is appreciated thus we look forward to you getting behind the team in Ellesmere Port!
