ATHERTON LR 0, SQUIRE'S GATE 0: A clean sheet was perhaps the only positive Atherton could take out of this dull game at Crilly Park.
Neither side produced a shot on target throughout 90 minutes of football, with fragmented football the order of the day.
Paul Crompton went closest to breaking the deadlock for the home side, when his shot from inside the box was deflected just wide for a corner.
Squires' best chance arrived when Mark Sandham broke through one on one with returning keeper Ashley Timms, only to send his shot well wide of the mark.
