us to win the league now. “We let some points slip late on in games


around November. If you look at the games against Woodley Sports, Congleton - where we were coasting with 10 minutes to go and let two points slip.” Cowking sees the title going to either St


Helens Town or Kidsgrove Athletic, although the Blues will never give up on promotion to the UniBond League until its mathematically impossible. Meanwhile, Clitheroe’s reward for beat­


ing Bacup Borough in the Lancashire Marsden Challenge Trophy is a quarter­ final away trip to fellow North West Coun­ ties’ First Division outfit Ramsbottom United. The tie is scheduled to take place during the first,week in February. The rest of the quarter-final draw is as

leap-frog their vanquished opponents into second place of the Red Rose Assurance League - one point behind leaders Nelson but with a game in hand.


On the whole, the match was a very


evenly balanced game but it was Mill Hill who opened the scoring in the 20th minute However, the Blues hit back soon after


when Joe Marshall scored after a goal­ mouth scramble.


The winning goal arrived five minutes before the break when Joe Melling went on


a superb solo run before expertly slotting home. Chris Heslop was awarded the man of


the match award. Coach Duncan Thomas said: “I t was a


very evenly balanced game, though we did create the better opportunities but failed to captitalise on them.” • Up-to-date Red Rose Assurance Youth League tables can be found on page 31.

have sandwiched the 5-1 thumping a t Maine Road, the latest coming in a sleep-induc­ ing game at Wimbledon on Sat­ urday.


' Ternent went into the game with only 17 fit players, the 16 who made the team sheet and Mark McGregor. And Greek striker


Papadopoulos picked up a leg injury, which Ternent hopes is, not too serious. However, the Clarets boss has


been stepping up his attempts to bolster the squad, with Southampton: boss Gordon Strachan also blocking a pro--, posed move to bring Kevin Davies - named Blackburn’s worst-ever player in The Times on Saturday! - after the injury to another former Blue James Beattie. Davies is well down the peck­


ing order at St Mary's, behind Marian Pahars, Brett Ormerod ; and Ecuador star Agustin Del­ gado, but was in line for a rare -' s ta r t last night as the Saints

hoping to progress further on another front last night, with Barnsley the visitors in their FA Cup third round replay. But this morning he will have


the small matter of a trip to Old Trafford-to contemplate - and how to stop red-hot Ruud van Nistelrooy.

To be fair, Rovers kept him as rapturous welcome from the
