WAYNE Goodison is urging Chorley to appoint a new manager after tonight's UniBond Division One home game at home to Kendal Town.

It will be Goodison's fourth match in caretaker charge since the sacking of Mark Molyneaux two weeks ago, and he is calling for some stability in the wake of Chorley's 1-0 humbling at bottom club Ossett Town on Saturday.

"Hopefully it will get sorted soon as the players are finding it hard," said Goodison.

"I think everyone has forgotten about them, but they need to know what's going on. You can't fault them for effort but they are going to be uncertain and it's not doing the fans any favours either.

"I'm the least important person in all this, but my circumstances are to do what I'm asked to do and see what happens from there."

Lee Southwood will still be missing form tonight's line-up, and there are injury doubts over Lee Wilkinson, Jamie Bates and Dean Butterworth, but captain Ian Leather is back from honeymoon.

Meanwhile, Molyneaux returned to playing for the first time since his dismissal from Victory Park for RAMSBOTTOM UNITED on Saturday.

He kept a clean sheet in the Rams' 1-0 victory over Squires Gate and will retain the number one shirt when they go to St Helens Town in North West Counties Division One tonight (7.45pm).

Also in NWCL One, BACUP BOROUGH go to Newcastle Town looking to bounce back from Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Nantwich.

As was the case at Atherton LR last Tuesday, conceding early goals left manager Brent Peters a frustrated man.

He said: "At the moment, I'll be glad to get past 12 minutes and have a clean sheet!

"Even games we have won, we've conceded in the first 10 minutes through a lack of self-discipline and this happened against Nantwich.

"It is soul-destroying because we are dominating games and creating lot of chances.

"I've made changes to cut the mistakes out at the back, but the players coming in also press the self-destruct button and it's costing us."
