Quakers looking for hat trick of wins
By Ray Simpson
Can we maintain our momentum?
Quakers are looking for a hat trick of wins at Chorley on Saturday.
In the last fortnight, Quakers have climbed into midtable with wins over Telford and Hereford, with striker Luke Charman taking his tally for the season to 7 in the process. He’s scored in each of the last six league matches.
