BRENT Peters is hoping Lady Luck will soon shine on his side after a string of fine NWCL Division Two performances have gone unrewarded.

Bacup go to Ashton for their Worthington Challenge Cup preliminary round clash with Peters telling his side to keep up the good work.

He said: "We have been playing very well lately but have got nothing to show for it. I have always said we are a good team but we just need a bit of help from Lady Luck."

Experienced utility player Dave Esdale is back in contention while the players involved in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat against Nelson have reported back injury free.
