Losing 4-1 was dispiriting enough in itself. However, it was more the manner in which Rammy’s performance fell away that left supporters with few positives to take.

The Rams come into this one off the back of a 0-0 draw with Hanley Town on Tuesday night.

Rammy secure their first point of 2023 on the road at Hanley Town after a hard fought battle.

After heartbreak away at City of Liverpool on Saturday Ramsbottom will be hoping to right there wrongs as soon as possible.

Ramsbottom suffer another league defeat as the Purps do the league double over them.

It is two weeks now since Ramsbottom last played a competitive match and they’ll be chomping at the bit to get back out there.

The Rams at home for the first time in 2023 and they’ll be hoping to emulate the last home game where they saw off Trafford.

Yet again an attempt by the Ramsbottom United team to garner much needed points fell flat on a cold and windy day on Merseyside.
