ODD GOAL WIN


IN GAME WHICH WAS NEARLY ‘BLACKED-OUT’


^ L IT H E R O E certainly had to fight hard for their 3— 2 vic­ tory over Great Harwood at Shaw Bridge, on Wednesday,


for although they scored tw o g o a ls in a minute, their opponents reduced the arrears 10 minutes later, and then in the second half after Clitheroe had scored after 49 minutes, the visitors again closed the gap a minute later.


In addition. Great Harwood had a goal disallowed for ofl'-


.side after 74 minutes, which, to say the least, seemed a split- hair decision.


With two of their regular players unavailable, Clitheroe


had a strange-looking team on view. As Hodson and Nightingale were unavailable, Widdup


and Baron took over the wing half-back positions, with Kirk at centre-half. Wilkinson appeared at right half and Fitzgerald at centre


forward. The light was very bad to­


wards the end of the match and there were complaints


from Great Harwood’s sup­ porters that the game was


ended four minutes too soon. Incessant rain did not help


matters either, and the surface of the pitch %vas like a skating rink.


pla.ving W id d u p and Baron as wing halves proved quite a suc­ cess; both tackled hard and moved the ball well. In fact, W id d u p had one of his best games since fie joined Clitheroe. Fitzgerald, playing his fii’st


league game for Clitheroe at centre forward, h a d quite a profitable night, for not only did he score his maiden goal for the club, but he showed several neat touches on a pitch which defied players to play good foot­ ball.


T h e two teams can look back


on this game with different feelings. Great Harwood must have felt ’Tobbed” of a goal w h en A d am s netted but Bram- ley was pulled up for offside.


After that disallowed "goal” . Ciitheroe’s defence became a


little ragged and was often at panic stations, but cool play by


the half back line reduced the danger. Great Harwood


a l m o s t


scored in the ffi-st few minutes when Bramle.v tried to head a fast cross, but just missed con­ necting with the ball. In retaliation. Baron weaved


his way through, but his final shot was wide of the target. Bailey earned cheers from the crowd w h en he calmly beat


three Clitheroe forwai-ds and cleared the ball.


1 Fitzgerald headed the ball


down and Baron, with a snap­ shot. caused Oxendale some difilcult.v. the goalkeeper h.aving to make two attempte to save. Kirk headed for a corner


w h e n under pressure, and from Shepherd’s kick. Wallace had to punch clear from Bramlev’s head.


I l l c om m au d Ciitheroe’s changed defence


wa.s playing quite well, and the n ew half back line was in com m and of the visitors’ inside forwards, with Kirk and W i d ­ dup outstanding.


Sliepherd centred, and .Adams


just missed connecting with a header which would have given Wallace little chance. After 32 minutes Clitheroe


took the lead with a WallbanK ••special” , the inside left tried a shot from 30 yards, and O x e n ­ dale. possibly due to the con- dition.s. had no chance. A minute later Fitzgerald


fastened on to R a y Hobson’s through ball and scored his first goal for the club. Bramicy reduced the arrears


after 42 minutes w hen Wallace was unable to hold a shot and the centre forward was on h and


to score a tjTDical opportunist j goal.


Clayton took a throw and Kirk headed for a corner. From


I Clitberoe’s experiment of


the kick. Wallace was h i t in the face from an overhead kick by Coi-son and bad to receive treat­


ment. Half-time came with Clitheroe


still leading 2— 1 . D ue to the conditions anci the


light. the teams changed straight -retmei at the interval. Wilkinson tried a long shot


a coineur'" Adams shot way over when


tackled by Wallace right in


front of goal. After 49 minutes. Clitheroc


increased their lead. Hobson


I’aced after the ball, beat the full back, drew Oxendale. and then lobbed the ball into the empty net with the goalkeeper racing back. A minute later, Corson chased


a through pass and lobbed the ball over Wallace's head into tile net. Widdup was unfortunate not


to score when he tried a shot from 30 yards and Oxendale finger-tipped the ball to safety. With Wallace completely


beaten. Simmons lifted the bafl yards over the far corner of the net. Hobson was brought down when going through, and a


goalmouth scramble resulted from the free kick, and Fitz­ gerald hit the post. W id dup tried a quick centre


and Fitzgerald headed just wide.


Heyes and Hobson co’.nbined


in a dangerous move which ended with Oxendale palming the inside right’s fierce drive for a corner. Kershaw worked his way


arid was unlucky not to score when Oxendale made a brilliant save to turn, the ball round for
