BIG GUIDE TEAM CHOICE


FORGET THE FACT that Clitheroe beat Padiham 4—1


at Shaw Bridge on Saturday, , or that this was Clitheroe’s second highest score of the season. The fact that took the cvc was that Clitheroe had too little method in attack or defence, and too many, players tried to “go'it alone”. - Too often the forward line


was prevented from finishing promising moves by s h e e r bad passing. As one member of the crowd put it, "There used to be a time when one out of every five passes went to an opponent, but now it is

Championship struggle remains wide open


WHALLEY Youth Club gained their first win since late October, 1965, when they defeated Hurst Green 4—2 away on Saturday. . The match that everyone


was awaiting—Chatbum v Gisbum—was played on Sat­ urday, and the result was a 1—1 draw which still leaves the race for the championship wide open. Bowker Bros., who im­


centre forward, equalised with a good volley from a corner- kick. This inspired Hurst Green to a further onslaught on the Whalley ’ goal, but the whole forward line was guilty of some glaring misses. Just before half-time. Whal­


ley broke through and 'Bibby ran through to score. After the interval, the game


continued in the same pattern, with Hurst Green doing much of the attacking, but being let down by some extremely poor finishing, with the forwards missing open goals and even a penalty. No doubt disheartened, the
