Play-off Information

The North West Counties Football League released the dates for the playoffs ahead of the end of the season, taking place over the following two Saturdays as indicated below:

Play-off Semi-Finals
2nd v 5th and 3rd v 4th, Saturday 27th April

Play-off Final
Winners of each Semi-Final, Saturday 4th May

Ties are to be played at the home venue of the higher ranking side.

Following yesterday’s results, we are due to take on Padiham at Gigg Lane next Saturday in our play-off semi final.

However, there remains the completion of fixture backlog for other sides going into next week. Charnock Richard still have four games to complete their season and their potential points haul could still see them grab 4th place, and a play-off spot.

Should it be mathematically possible that Charnock could still affect the play-off picture, the Semi-Finals would be delayed to the following midweek to account for this.

The league will review the situation on Wednesday this week, following the completion of the first two of Charnock Richard’s games – taking place on Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd.

More details on admission arrangements for the Semi-Final will be communicated after this point.
