Padiham is gearing up for the fifth round of the 2026/2027 Northern Premier League Division One West against Atherton Collieries, and it's clear that they have a tough road ahead. Currently ranked 16th, Padiham has only managed to secure two points from their first three games, leaving much to be desired. A closer look at their recent form reveals a struggling team, with only one win in their last five matches.

However, their previous match saw them concede four goals to Shifnal Town FC, a defeat that must have been a wake-up call for the team.
