Now Playing Tom Byrom Someone Just Like You

Here come the girls!

Ashton United's women's team are preparing for their first ever game.

The Robins, who will play home games at Hurst Cross, host Fleetwood Town this evening.

The idea to form a women's team is part of a new vision at Hurst Cross, proposed and executed by new joint-chairmen, David and Jonathan Burke.

As well as forming the women's team, David and Jonathan have given first team manager Jody Banim a healthy budget to deliver promotion at the first time of asking, and they've also outlined plans to build a new stand at Hurst Cross and regenerate Hurst in general.

Entry to tonight's game is free of charge. 7.45pm kick-off.
