Stanley Ladies Defeated

Stanley Ladies suffered another defeat at home against Padiham on Sunday.
After holding the away side for 20 minutes it was Stanley who looked the stronger and were catching them on the break but were lacking the finishing touches.
Stanley went 2-0 down at the break from the penalty spot and another a shot from 20 yards out.
After a lacklustre start to the 2nd-half Stanley’s heads dropped and they suffered severely from the very strong Padiham counter-attacks which unfortunately worked a treat for them scoring the majority of the remaining goals on the counter.

The girls have only been together as a squad for 8 weeks, so there is still time to remedy the situation and with a local derby away at Pendle Forest next Sunday at 2pm on Prairie Playing Fields in Burnley who knows what could happen, miracles cannot happen overnight!
