MANAGER’S NOTE OF CAUTION
IT was a very pleased Clitheroe manager who spoke to our reporter this week. Of last Saturday’s match against Colne, Eric Whalley said: “It was an exciting game which we really deserved to win. Although Colne had the best of the first half, we ran the second.” Eric was also pleased

with the performance of new boy, midfielder Ronnie Haworth. He played under Eric at Great Harwood and slot ted into the! team very well. On Saturday he settled
quickly and had a couple of chances to score. However, Eric is feel
ing a little more cautious about Saturday’s game against mid-table Newton. Said Eric: “We’ll have
to show them some re spect. as they made a bad start to the season but have managed to pull themselves up the league slowly but surely. “And without both- cap
is now hotting up as Clitheroe stay in second place. In the North West Counties League Division' Three only the top two sides are promoted. Colne are sitting pretty at the top and Clitheroe’s main challengers for a promo tion place are Warrington Town and Prestwich Heys — both with games in hand over the “Roo’s.” However, Clitheroe’s
tain Mick Ashcroft and midfielder Clive Dunn — both suspended for a week — the team will have to work hard.” The fight for promotion
trump card is the fact that the remaining games are all to be played at Shawbridge.

CLITHEROE FC have a busy programme at Easter with two games in two days. On Good Friday they are at

ahead.in the opening minutes. Faulker (Pendle CP) had a bril liant shot tipped over the bar, and had that gone in, they may have exerted more pressure in the first half. But a few minutes later, Blackburn took ad vantage of poor clearances to score two quick goals. The score remained that way until half time, but after a pep-talk, the Ribble Valley boys matched the home side in every department. Ten minutes into the

second half, the visitors’ pressure was rewarded when Faulker headed home from a good corner on the right by Milton (Whalley CE). The Ribble Valley boys continued to fight throughout the half, and were unlucky not to equalise on a number of occasions. But the boys did not have the run of the ball, and as they pressed forward for the equaliser, Blackburn struck with a third goal right on full time. Al though the boys came away with no points, they made1 many friends who were impressed with the performance. This Saturday will
