Linnets ready to Boot up

Our second home game on the spin tomorrow sees us entertain traditional rivals Bootle - and some very familiar faces.

The Bucks' 15 retentions from last season include captain Jay Roberts and fellow former Linnets favourite Michael Simpson.

Runcorn connections have only been strengthened by summer captures of midfielder Lewis Doyle and 'keeper Bayleigh Passant.

Both switched camps after giving sterling service at the APEC.

Doyley's arrival has offset the loss of Lewis Earl to Warrington Town.

Bootle will be getting their first competitive runout after missing the action on Saturday as the seventh NPL West club not engaged in the FA Cup.

We will be eager to build on the 4-2 victory over Stalybridge Celtic.
