MARK Molyneaux's re-vamped Chorley team beat a full-strength Runcorn FC Halton side 3-1 in a pre-season friendly at Victory Park last night.

Darren Emmett set the ball rolling when he scored from the spot after former Colne striker George Craddock had been fouled in the area.

Then another Emmett penalty and a strike from Ian Bold sealed a richly deserved victory for the Magpies as they maintained their impressive pre-season form.
