Witton travel to Vauxhall Motors on Saturday afternoon in their second Pre Season Friendly. The Motormen are now gradually returning to the levels of football that they enjoyed in the late 90’s, following the step up to North West Counties level. The club has endured an 18 year absence from this level and will be hoping to begin the rise once again. Formed in 1963, they experienced success at Northern Premier League level in the mid 90s and progressed to Conference North but sadly fell away dramatically but they can hopefully look ahead now to brighter and better things. Witton manager Carl Macauley and Secretary Mike Harper will be in familiar surroundings at Rivacre Park and Witton will be looking to get more game time under their belts following a tough start to Pre Season against Southport in midweek. The Motormen will be buoyed by the excellent performance and result against a young Tranmere Rovers side in which Motors prevailed 2-0 but these games are all about match fitness and results although nice, take second place as both teams look towards the new season. Kick off at Syncreon Arena is 3pm.
