CLITHEROE boss Neil Reynolds is hoping the Blues have finally turned the corner in 2008 after a miserable run of results.

The Shawbridge club ended a six-game winless streak in UniBond Division One (North) with a superb 1-0 victory over promotion-chasing Ossett Albion on Saturday, courtesy of a last-gasp winner from Mickey Saunders.

They now travel to mid-table Wakefield tonight eager to build on a much-needed win that has eased fears of the Blues being sucked towards the foot of the table.

"It was a great victory for us," said Reynolds. "I was delighted with the effort and the performance from the lads.

"You could see at the end of the game how much it meant to them and the supporters - who have been magnificent. It was like we'd just won the FA Cup.

"I thought we thoroughly deserved the three points, even if the goal did come late in the day.

"It was a relief to get that three points, but I've always stayed positive because we've got so much quality.

"I look at my team on paper and it's very strong all the way through."
