CHORLEY boss Shaun Teale is hoping his side can be the party poopers at high-flying Colwyn Bay tomorrow.
Bay celebrate their 125th anniversary this weekend and they have all manner of festivities planned to mark the special date in their history.
But Teale insists his Magpies are in no mood to party as they go in search of the win they desperately need to keep their own play-off ambitions alive.
"It's party time for them so they'll be up for it but so will we," said Teale.
Chorley are still smarting from last week's trip to Fleetwood, when they lost to a 94th minute winner and then returned to the changing rooms to find their valuables had been stolen by an opportunist thief.
"I guess you could say it wasn't quite our day," said the Magpies chief.
"First and foremost, we lost the game in the fourth minute of injury time, which was a kick in the proverbials to say the least.
"Then, on top of that, to go back to the dressing room to find that our things had gone missing was a double whammy."
Skipper Jamie Vermiglio is struggling to be fit tomorrow as a result of a hamstring injury and Martin Clark is suspended.
