Keith helps Chatburn to promotion
Ribchester Rovers................................0 Chatburn.................................•..............1 VETERAN goalkeeper Keith Johnson came out of retirement to help Chatbum clinch promotion to the East Lancashire League First Division. The 53-year-old kept a clean sheet, and
was scarcely tested in a game Chatbum won thanks to a Geoff Young strike. The two sides were evenly-balanced, with
chances at a premium. The visitors had the better of the early
exchanges with Young being denied by the home keeper, and Lawson headed Brad shaw's comer against the bar. The second half started as the first fin
ished, with both sides cancelling each other out, until Young, who had been marked out of the game, curled a superb effort home. The game became more open as Chatbum
sat back, but with Lawson and Heanan a tower of strength at the back, Johnson was well protected. At the end, one goal was enough on a day when Chatbum were not at their best.
