CLITHEROE were anticipat­ ing a tough match against


Vale of Lune, but the opposi­ tion was even tougher than


they had expected, because they found themselves pitched against the third team instead of the fourth team they were


scheduled to play. Clitheroe s worst fears


WHALLEY moved into the next round of the LFA Adidas


Shield with a comfortable vic­ tory over Preston Premier League side Buxton Villa. After an even f irs t 10


minutes, Buxton broke clear but Whalley’s Darren Hope was on hand to clear off his own goal line. Two minutes later, a great strike from Robin Bury hit the upright and the deflection was scram­


bled clear. Midway through the half, Whalley took control with two goals in as many minutes, put­ ting the home side firmly in


the driving seat. Dave Parr opened the scor­


ing with a close range shot after good work from Robin Bury and Tommy Poole. Then a surging ran from Ian Bolton split the visitors’ defence, his cross being met by Shaun Smith who made no mistake with his finish. After 50 minutes, the game


was finally put beyond Bux­ ton’s reach as Whalley scored


their third. Shaun Smith and Stuart Ormerod combined
