Ciitheroe 422324 (Editorial), 422323 (Advertising), Burnley 422331 (Classifieg)


Walmsley fires hat-trick W o lv e s ’ h om e ru le Donald as Ciitheroe extend lead


Springfields.................2 Clitheroe..................... 3 DESPITE turning in their worst performance of the season at Preston's Sports Arena, Ciitheroe came away with all the p ^ n ts thanks to a hat- trick from Rachel Walms- ley. The locals went ahead


through Walmsley follow­ ing a short corner, but Springfields pressured Ciitheroe throughout the half and got a deserved equaliser just before half­ time. Clitheroe's coach tried


to spur her side into play­ ing their normal game, and they did marginally improve in the second half, but they had star pfiSijrer Walmsley to thank as it was her form and sec­ ond hat-trick of the sea­ son that saw Ciitheroe through. Springfields gave a very determined display arid


scored their second with minutes left to play, which led to a very anxious few minutes for the locals’ defence. This win puts Ciitheroe


four points clear at the head of the table. Ciitheroe 2nds............2 Scholars.......................0 CLITHEROE went into this game looking for their f irs t win of the season, and put in their best per­ formance to date. The midfield play was


competitive and flowing, and the locals’ first goal came via a penalty scored by Gay Preston. The second goal of the


game came from Bronte Box, and as Clitheroe played as a team, they looked comfortable throughout the game and could have scored more if it had not for the heroics of Scholars’ goalkeeper. By contrast, Clitheroe's keeper did not have a save


Emotional night as Dolphins


debut, but coach ' says farewell


IT was an emotional night in Wales on Saturday as Clitheroe Dolphins debuted in the Speedo Second Division, and also said goodbye to Head Coach Jonathan Preston. The team took to the new challenge,


eventually finishing fourth in a tight six­ way encounter. "There were individual wins for


Thomas Carter in the 50m backstroke and 50m freestyle, Elliot Holden in the 50m breaststroke and Mark Jaggs in the i^9m breaststroke. Preston, Ribble Valley Coach of the


Year for the last two years, has secured a top coaching jobs elsewhere in the county.


i-A Jonathan Preston Since his appointment at Clitheroe, he


has seen his charges produce year on year improvements, including two pro­ motions, and leaves the club in good health. Commenting on the departure, chair­


man Mick Jones said: ’’Success gets you noticed. We are all sad to see Jon go, but he has earned the opportunity to coach full time at a new £4.5 million pool with an elite group of swimmers, where the next stop might be the Olympics. “ I t was an offer he couldn’t turn


down. We wish him well, we will stay in touch and will follow his progress close­ ly.”


Pumas don’t get rub of green in frustrating league cup exit


Whalley Pumas V16s . .1 Lammack Juniors-----3 WHALLEY Pumas Under 16s found them­ selves undeservedly dumped out of the league ctf-p in their second 3-1 defeat of the season at the hands of Lammack Juniors. In blustery conditions,


the first half was one of few chances, but Lam­ mack were gifted the lead when the Pumas failed to deal properly with a cor- and an own goal


resulted from an unfortu­ nate ricochet off a Whal­ ley defender. After the interval, the


locals upped the pace and began to dominate. Lone striker Sam Tow-


nend was totally unplayable when on the ball, and was soon clearly brought down in the area when about to strike, but no penalty was awarded. 'This injustice was com­


pounded minutes later when a defensive mix up saw the ball trickle over the line to make it 2-0 to Lammack. To their credit, Whalley


continued to press and were duly rewarded when Simon Cowgill fired in a 25-yard free kick. Lam­ mack were rattled and


soon gave another free kick away just outside the box. A Lammack defender’s


hand blatantly stopped CowgilTs goal-bound shot and the Pumas were again astounded not to be awarded a penalty. With time running out,


Lammack sneaked an undeserved third goal to kill the match and deny Whalley at least extra time. Once again Declan Fitzhenry was outstand­ ing, and a runaway man- of-the-match in a fine team performance th a t simply deserved better then they got.


to make in the second half, and the defence never looked in danger of being beaten. This win moves the


locals up to ninth place, but level on points with fifth place. Clitheroe Hockey Club

r\ rxxt Pendle Forest


Wolves Under 13s Red . .2 .............2


THESE two teams pro­ Wolves all three points. duced an excellent game of football which was a superb advertisement for the qual­ ity of local football in the Warburtons League.


Over the past three sea­


sons the matches between these two sides have always been competitive and close­ ly fought, and this one was no exception. Throughout the game,


both sides tried to play con­ structive football and many chances were creat­ ed.


The only disappoint­


ment the Wolves may have is that they allowed a two- goal lead to slip away. Two goals from


Haworth, who on both occasions was in the right place at the right time to fire the ball home, gave the locals the lead. To their credit though,


level in the second half, the match could have gone either way, and but for an outstanding save from each keeper and some sound tackling from man-of-the- match, Hopkins, there may have been a winner. A draw, however, was a


fair result in the end. Chipping Juniors........1 Wolves Under 11s ........S

Kay opened the scoring for Wolves mid-way through the first half in a period of play dominated by the visi­ tors, but stubborn defend­ ing by Haslingden prevent­ ed the lead from being stretched, and a moment’s lapse in concentration by the Wolves back line led to the home team equalising just before half-time. Wolves opened the sec­


ond half the stronger team, and some wonderful team­ work provided Kay with two more goals to claim his hat-trick. With six minutes to go


Tom Robinson helped themselves to two apiece, while Louis Horrocks, Con­


appeared on the scoresheet, with goals coming at regu­ lar intervals. Andy Ramsden and


Haslingden managed to pull one back, and then proceeded to bombard the Wolves defence, who were relieved when the final whistle blew. This result leaves Wolves


sitting third in the North Valley League table, as they look forward to visit­ ing Barnoldswick Barons this Sunday.


Brave fightback in vain


Roefield Leisure Ulls .2 Wilpshire Wanderers .3 ROEFIELD put together a fine second half per­ formance, having been stunned in the first few seconds of the game against their Ribble Val­ ley rivals, and 3-0 down at half-time. Wilpshire netted almost


from the kick-off as a cross from the wing drift­ ed in over the Roefield keeper. But despite this se t­


back, Roefield defended well, with man of the match Jack Excell provid­ ing a solid barrier against


the Wilpshire attack. Unfortunately, Wilp­


shire broke through again after 10 minutes, and despite some solid defend­ ing from the Leisure Cen­ tre side, the visitors hit the ta rge t again just before half-time to go into the break 3-0 up. The second half saw a
