tpHE cheers that Clitheroe supporters had waited four games to give welcomed Clitheroc’s first goal of thej season at Sh aw


Bridge bn Saturday, and. later therelwere more cheers for three further I goals; which helped bring Clitheroe their first victory and first points of the season.


------^


■ But important though these goals were after four goalless games, the loudest cheers went to recognise the, best; Clitheroe team for a long time. Improved out of all recognition by the in­ troduction of three new players and the [acquisition of a new­ found power in attack, Clitheroe did much' to erase memories of the season’s disappointing start.


than this well-deserved win against Rochdale Resferves was the manner in which it was accomplished—by well-knit team­ work, constructive methods, and above all j by a new-look inside forward trio which on this show­ ing will prove a headache to many Comoination defences be­ fore the season is out.


For still more encouragmg | Of three new players making


their debut at Shaw Bridge,,-all impressed | as -the most useful acquisitions in the recent history of the club, but none more ’than the tall, I slim centre-forward Francis, signed last week from Rossendalej United.


, , FIRST GOALS By half-time Francis had


with effective support he will provide the attacking punch that Clitheroe have lacked so long. On this occasion he was cleverly supported by his inside forward colleagues, one of them another newcomer, Trezise, at Inside-left, and George Hargreaves at inside-

in matches against Rochcjale and Fleetwood. Will Satur-day’s display against


Rochdale prove the first step along the r o a d t o long- waited CUtheroe success? Manr sup­ porters would like to bel eve so and certainly there was cause for optimism in this tho:'oughly stoisfyin'g-display.
