Coach Scott has been able to name a strong squad to head down the M6 to face the difficult task of winning at Heaton Moor, who themselves are scrapping for every point in there bid to avoid the drop. The only person from the previous week missing is Lee Tinnion who picked up a knock while crashing over for his Hattrick. Heinie Jonker continues to miss out through a back problem and Jack Robinson has work commitments.

However the return of Marc Haycock was a welcome releif to the backline and the coaches will be looking for Cocky to build on his cameo appearance last weekend.

Squad as follows:

Andrew Miller (C)
Lee Holliday
Tom Gardner
Marc Haycock
Rob Cuthbert
Jason Ward
Jack Clegg
Graeme Andrews
Ash Ravell
Ian McDowell
Mike Lister
Wayne Cavanagh
Liam Ridley
Greg Dickinson
James Ravell
Phil Dixon
Tom Lindsay
Matthew Atkinson

Aspatria have travelled to Heaton Moor twice in recent memory. Firstly in a top of the table clash during the blackreds title winning season of 2010. An outstanding game saw the cumbrians take the spoils against then second placed Heaton Moor by 3 points with the game memorable for 4 tries form Heinie Jonker.

Secondly 2 years ago the Blackreds travelled to Stockport and on a cold and blustery day took the tie by 10ish points against a then also relegation threatended side. Both these games prove warning to the blackreds that they will get nothing easy off the moor lads.

Bus leaves the club at 9;45am and dress shirts to be worn afterwards.
