TOWN MOVE UP TO 4TH AFTER DRAW

Runcorn Town moved up to fourth place in the North West Counties League Premier Division after a 0-0 draw at league leaders Bootle - the first goalless draw for Town in over two years.

Leading scorer James McShane squandered Town's best chance in the 67th minute after he won a penalty after being bundled over in the box, but hit the effort high over the bar.

Town were indebted to Karl Wills who kept them in the game with a superb double stop that would have been shown endless times if it was on Match of the Day - Mark Kilroy’s free kick superbly stopped with Tom Foley’s follow up tipped around the post.
