OLDHAM Athletic's mascot has finally met his match and she's a diehard Bury fan!

But soccer differences between Zoe Skews and Kevin Williams will be forgotten when they walk down the aisle for their wedding next month.

Kevin (28), known to the Latics faithful as mascot Chaddy Owl, will tie the knot with 25-year-old Karen in Middleton on December 8.

Despite the fact both are soccer "rivals", they are well matched in the love league.

Professional actor Kevin met Zoe, formerly of Bury Road, Radcliffe, at The Met bar in Bury ten years ago. They have a three year-old son, Dylan.

Kevin said: "Zoe and all her family are big Bury fans. And Zoe is determined our little boy is going to be brought up as a Shakers supporter.

"But although we are rival supporters, both clubs are quite friendly with each other."

And he joked: "Despite the fact Zoe is a fan of Bury and I'm the Oldham mascot, I'm quite happy with that arrangement because my club normally wins.

"However, Zoe does come to quite of few of Oldham's games with Dylan."

Chaddy is a pal of controversial Bury mascot Robbie the Bobby, alias Jonathan Pollard. The pair competed against each other with a penalty shoot-out and sprint across the pitch when Bury and Oldham played at Boundary Park earlier this season.
