Michael Ellison sets Runcorn Linnets expectation as Harry McGee blow confirmed

Runcorn Linnets sit in the playoff places but the race for the top five is heating up.

Michael Ellison says Runcorn Linnets need to give their supporters ‘something to cheer about’ against Stafford Rangers.

The visit from Stafford forms part of a crucial period for Linnets in their quest for securing the playoffs.

Clitheroe inflicted a second defeat of Ellison’s tenure at the APEC Taxis Stadium.

And he wants his Linnets side to bounce back on Saturday after a toothless display at Shawbridge Street.
