FC Oswestry Town boost promotion hopes with away win
FC Oswestry Town proved to be happy travellers as they gave their North West Counties League Division One promotion hopes a boost, writes John Bridgwater.
Town notched their fifth win of the season after pulling off a terrific 3-0 success at Silsden.
It proved a long trek for Town who made the 200-mile round trip to Yorkshire, but they returned in happy spirits after one of their best displays of the season.
Shawn Melusi put the visitors on course for victory with a 10th-minute opener, and the visitors wre firmly in the driving seat when Liam Molloy added a second right on the stroke of half-time.
Substitute Brendan Price sealed the victory 12 minutes from time, lifting Town up to 12th in the table, level on points with Silsden, and looking in good shape to climb higher.
Buoyed by the win, the Oswestry side will welcome Daisy Hill to Park Hall on Saturday.
