players unavailable, they created enough to be three or four up, with the pick of the misses falling to Kay, who should have given the keeper no chance.

A LAST-minute equaliser denied WFC Clitheroe all three points, after a lack of discipline cost them dear. The locals even had a


two-goal cushion going into the final 10 minutes. But an own goal from


keeper Sam Hadcroft got the hosts back in, before


Chipping F C ............... 1 Wigan Sports Club . . .3 A WEAKENED Chip­ ping gained great credit from this performance, despite defeat. The first half saw the sides cancelling each other out. The best chance fell to the Wigan centre forward, who saw his powerful effort brilliantly tipped over the by keeper Matt Ireland. At the other end, Johnny
