I f , 70 Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, Thursday, May 3rd, 2007


Locals bounce back from defeats


AFTER the previous weekend’s defeat to pro­ motion favourites Burn­ ley, Clitheroe returned to the town to face Crow Wood B and came away with all the points. Derek Parrott and


Phil Mileham started impressively in a one­ sided set, in which their opponents won just three points. The windy conditions


made settling into a rhythm difficult, but they kept up the pressure and closed out 6-0,6-4. On the other court,


Steve Pym and Tony Bush enjoyed their encounter with a mixed pair, and after a close start, their unique brand of doubles play paid divi­ dends and they won 6-4, 6-


1. The return matches


were always going to be straightforward, and Parrott and Milehara made short work of the second pair 6-2, 6-1, while Pym and Bush kept their composure and were rarely troubled in a 6-4,6-2 result. Clitheroe’s Open B


team maintained their winning start to the sea­ son with a hard-fought success over Burnley C. The tie finished 2-2,


with Clitheroe winning 42-40 on countback. The stars of the show


were captain John Calvert and Peter Bell, who won 6-1, 6-1 in their first match, and came from behind to win their second match 2-6,6-3,7- 6.


Clitheroe’s second pair,


Steve Higson and Ian Brown, went down in both their matches 0-6, 3-6, and 6-0,4-6,1-6. Whalley A also


bounced back from an opening day defeat. They managed to get


their first win of the sea­ son in the First Division of the East Lancashire' Open Tennis League at home to Crow Wood A. However, they got off


to a shaky start with the number one pairing Andrew Moore and Jerry Brees losing 7-6,6-3. They showed their


true form against the vis­ itors’ second pair with a fine 6-1,6-1 win. Whalley's second pair­


ing Richard Lambert and Tom Ormerod played very steady tennis to win their first match 6-3, 6-4, and then won against the visiting top pair 6-4,7-6. ■

Maximum haul for champions Clitheroe


CLITHEROE CC picked up maximum points at Chatburn Road on Satur­ day and showed that they are not about to give up their Ribblesdale League title easily. Neil Bibby (4-27) and


Michael Dewhurst (3-39) impressed with the ball, before professional Michael Papps (71 not out) and Peter Dibb (60) did the rest to scoop an eight-wicket victory against Cherry Tree. Captain Simon Coulter’s


men would have loved to have had first knock on a flat deck and racked up a big score, but that was not to be as Cherry Tree won the toss and elected to bat first. Without opening bowler


Josh Marquet, who was sidelined through illness, the new ball was thrown to Mark Hargreaves, and he didn’t disappoint and, in tandem with Papps, Clitheroe built some early pressure. Backed up with some


good fielding, the locals stemmed the flow and took an early wicket when a quick yes/no single ended with both batsman at the same end to see Cherry Tree captain Mark Had- f ield run out. Some cool work from


keeper Coulter resulted in Papps whipping off Had- field's bails, and the Cherry Tree dangerman was on his way. "This brought sub pro


David Bernard to the crease, who played and missed to Hargreaves numerous times and looked set for a good score before he snicked a Papps delivery to the grateful Coulter for just 14. Bibby and Dewhurst


replaced the opening bowlers and they too bowled an excellent line, which made it difficult for the batsmen to score. Dewhurst picked up


three excellent wickets, two catches at slip for Papps and an Ibw decision for the dismissal of top scorer Lee Kennedy. Bibby was the pick of the


day’s bowlers as be returned 4-27 oft 10, as he dismissed the tail, who seemed to have no answers to his slow spin. So 138 all out was never


going to be enough, as Dibb and the in-form Papps were raring to go. West Indian Bernard


caused a few problems early on for youngster Dibb, but once he and Papps found their feet, they both played exquisite shots all around the wicket. Papps was quick on to


the short ball to pull out the boundaries, and Dibb sweetly drove anything that was pitched up. The 100 partnership


came in the 20th over, and was soon followed by 50s for both players. Dibb, who was looking to


end the game quickly, butchered a couple more fours before he was bowled


by Joe Bolton for 60. Papps carried his bat and


made an excellent 71, and Jack Dewhurst finished off the job with a boundary after Neil Bolton tell for a duck. Two wins from two sets


Clitheroe up for their first league double-header of the season, away to Settle on Saturday and at home to Baxenden on Sunday, wick­ ets pitched at 1-30 p.m. On Sunday, the Chatburn


Road side were victorious again at Norcross in the English Knockout Cup. Clitheroe are obviously


eager to do well in all com­ petitions this season, and this trip to Fleetwood, where they were greeted by a very dry, unpredictable track, didn't faze them as they squeezed out a nine- run victory. Without professional


Papps, former captain Bolton opened the batting with Dibb, and the pair got the locals off to an excellent start by scoring 49 off the first 10 overs. Bolton was dismissed for


28 and then Dibb went for 19, and what followed was the most amazing Clitheroe collapse seen in a few sea­ sons. Norcross brought on


their slower bowlers, and the ball just would not bounce. It was so difficult to score


runs, and the rest of the Clitheroe batsmen could only take the score to 77 in 32 overs and the home side


thought that they had the game won at the interval. Clitheroe had other ideas,


though, as they knew they had two quality spinners that could create some damage. This proved to be the


case as Hargreaves and Graeme Kershaw opened, and the latter nicked three wickets in a devastating opening spell. Hargreaves kept it tight


at the other end, and Nor­ cross were 30-3 when the spinners came on, and, as predicted, there was turn and variable bounce that the batsmen had no answers to.


Bibby got in on the act


with two wickets, and Bolton finished with match winning figures of 4-10 off eight, including the big wicket of Norcross opener Yousuf, who had his eyes on slogging his way to victory with a fine 37. Hargreaves came back at


the end when the home side were nine down and still needed 12 runs. He came up with the


goods, bowling the final wicket against what was a very chirpy but weak side. Catches from Danny Glover, Chris Browp (2), Hargreaves and Kershaw aided this excellent victory, and sets up a meeting against local rivals Ribbles­ dale Wanderers in the next round later this month.


Team effort earns Read first win


READ CC recorded their first win of the season away at Blackburn Northern on Saturday thanks to five wickets from professional Thomas Odoyo and a mid­ order batting partnership by Oliver Newby and David Swarbrick. The latter ensured the


team made their 181 target set by Blackburn Northern for this four-wicket win. After the former, coupled


with 2-6 from Warren East- ham and a wicket apiece for Andrew Rushton and Chris Astin, had guaranteed the side maximum points if the team came through with the bat. Odoyo's 5-54 saw the side


cut out the Blackburn open­ er Hasan Bhojani leg before wicket for just one run only to then return with Assif Bhojani (0) before clearing out the late order of Arshad (7), Mohammed Jamil (27), again both Ibw, and Hussain ( 0) .


However it was Eastham


who took out the danger man in Naeem Ashraf as the former Clitheroe bats­ man had racked up 78 runs before the experienced Read man had him caught by ' Lancashire's Newby. And once he had gone


there was only the limited efforts of stand in paid man K. Butt (22) and Mohammed Jamil (27) to contend with and Chris Astin and Odoyo brought an end to their stands. In reply Read's runs did­


n't come from captain Will Driver for a change although his contribution of 21 set the side on its way


Thomas Odoyo


before he was stumped by Hussain off the bowling of


Bult. Fellow opener Nick


Marsh had added eight and Kyle O'Connor made four, but it was county player Newby (46) and former Colne captain Swarbrick (31) who won this game. Their fifth wicket part­


nership saw the score jump from 39-4 to 127-5 by the time Newby was removed by Butt. Swarbrick suffered the same fate as he too was bowled by the sub profes­ sional. Which left the undefeat­


ed knocks of Chris Holt (32) and Andrew Turner (16) to finish off the reply, having claimed the three overs not used by Black­ burn to take the innings to 48 over game. This weekend sees the


team enter a double header of fixtures for the bank hol­ iday with Cherry Tree at home on Saturday and derby opponents Whalley away on Sunday. Wickets will be pitched at 1-30 p.m. for both games.


Whalley canter to comfortable derby win


WHALLEY CC cantered to their second win of the new season with a fine all-round performance against Ribblesdale Wanderers. On a splendid April day, with


Station Road looking as well as it has for a long time, and a good wicket prepared, all was set for a tight battle between the two local rivals. Martin Davies won the toss


and elected to bat, but it was the evergreen David Howard who drew first blood with the prized scalp of the home professional Bradman Ediriweera for just two, with the score on four, when the Sri Lankan was caught behind. A couple of seasons ago that


would have been the beginning of the end for Whalley, but there is a strong resolve throughout the


gural Barnoldswick and District Inter- Schools’ Cross-Country Race on Saturday. The juniors took the competition by


H


storm, as both the Years 3 and 4 trophy, and the Years 5 and 6 trophy were won by the school's athletes. The event was organised by Pendle Ath­


letics Club and Rolls-Royce Leisure, and seven schools participated. There were two events, one for Years 3


and 4, covering a distance of 1,100m, which saw 51 children contest, and one.for 40 chil­


side, and the tight opening spell from paid man Joe Scuderi and Howard was kept at bay, until the latter bowled Lee Kearsley with the score on 31. This allowed Neil Cordingley to


the crease, and along with Davies, he ground his way in and the pair grew in confidence and perse­ vered. However, they managed just 66


in 22 overs, and Ribblesdale must have felt in control, but, as they started to open up, both proved in splendid form and the score crept up to 114-2. Men in the tent allowed Whal­


ley to speed things up, and they certainly did before the partner­ ship, which had amassed 155, was broken. Cordingley was caught in the


TWENTY pupils from Gisburn Pri­ mary School ran away with the inau­


deep for a sterling 79 off just 89 deliveries, with eight fours and a six.


As is often the case, his long


time partner fell soon after when Davies went for a quality 77, bowled by Howard. A quick thrash towards the end


saw Alex Whelan find the railway bank with a maximum in his 13 not out, and Fallon ended the innings with two more sixes, scor­ ing 13 oft three, and Whalley closed on 224-5 - a tall order for the visitors, despite four wickets from Howard, with 121 coming from the final 12 overs. Following the interval, the


opening pair failed to get the posi­ tive start that was needed it Rib­ blesdale were to mount a serious threat to a formidable target, with


dren, in Years 5 and 6, covering a distance of 1,600m. Aside from taking the team honours, individual achievements caihe from Joshua Long, who took gold in the Years 5 and 6 boys' race, closely followed by William Adamson with silver and Pascal Nicholls with bronze. And Caitlin Fellowes and Emma Todd


both took bronze in the Years 3 and 4 and Years 5 and 6 girls' races. Gisburn Primary School pupils are pic­


tured celebrating their cross-country suc­ cess. (A010507/5)

Cordingley and David O’Neill as economical as ever. Craig Hall went Ibw to O’Neill,


soon to be followed by Howard • and Ryan Gladwin both caught behind off O'Neill. All hopes of victory then wilted


as professional Scuderi fell to his opposite number, caught behind with the score becoming 44-4. Briggs became O’Neill's fourth


victim two runs later, and Rib­ blesdale, seemingly unaware that points are now available in the second innings for getting as close to the opposition total as possible, shut up shop. Simon Gorton grabbed three


wickets as the game petered out, and try as they might, Whalley could not claim the last two bats­ men and Ribblesdale closed on


114-8,110 short, to give the home side a comprehensive victory. Cordingley put in an outstand­


ing all-round performance, his 11 overs going for just 12 runs, to go with his 79 runs, but it was a fine team performance that earned Whalley 10 points. This weekend sees the first dou­


ble-header of the campaign, with a trip to Blackburn Northern, fol­ lowed by the visit of Read to Sta­ tion Road on Sunday for Whalley. And Ribblesdale face Edenfield


at home on Saturday, and a trip to Oswaldtwistle Immanuel on Sun­ day. Wickets are pitched at 1-30 p.m. • Cricket scorecards on page

Grindleton beat champs


Oxenhope Reserves___3 Grindleton....................i GRINDLETON finished their season on a high by beating newly-crow.ned Craven League First Divi­ sion Champions Oxenhope. In the final game of the


season, the villagers deserved all three points after coming back from 2-0 down at half-time. Grindleton defended the


slope well in the first half, limiting the hosts to a handful of chances. However, Oxenhope did


take the lead when the num­ ber 10 got a touch on a long throw-in to find the back of the net, and the second goal came via the penalty spot after an Oxenhope player was upended in the area. In the second half, and’


with the slope now to their advantage, Grindleton struck early, as winger Mar­ tin Dobson netted with a trademark left-foot strike. Soon after, James Driver


brought the game level when a whipped in corner caused chaos in the area, and the ball finally landed at the feet of Driver, who struck a sweet effort in-off


the underside of the bar. Grindleton deservedly


took the lead with the best move of the game. Captain Darren Barrow


and Martin Cowey worked well together down the right flank, allowing Cowey to complete the move. However, in a rare second


half attack from the hosts, they drew level, as slack defending at the back post allowed an Oxenhope strik­ er to head home from short range. Playing the better football


and creating chance after chance, both Barrow and Dobson rattled the wood­ work in quick succession. However, the decisive


goal came from an unlikely source, Phil North. Another long throw from


man-of-the-match Nick Doherty allowed North to turn and strike with his left foot to give Grindleton the win. The curtain finally comes


down on Grindleton's roller coaster season with the end- of-season presentation on Friday, May 11th at the Duke of Wellington.


Lions’ final date


CLITHEROE Lions play the first of two cup finals tonight. The locals take on Pendle Athletic in the Craven


League First Division Cup Final at Engine Shed Lane in Skipton, kick-off 6-30 p.m. The second final takes place at Gargrave against


Oxenhope in the Northern Plant Hire Cup on Wednesday, again with a kick-off time of 6-30 p.m. Supporters are welcome at both games.

time, a fierce free-kick was whipped in by Ben Threlfall and took a slight deflection to beat the keeper. ■ After the break, talisman

Keeper shuts out plucky locals


Enfield ......................... I Rimington...................0 RUNNERS-UP Riming­ ton lost their final game of the season but must be wondering how. The fact that Enfield’s


keeper was man-of-the- match points to the main reason as he pulled oft a string of unbelievable saves, while Kershaw at the other end basked in the sunshine for most of the game. Deprived of Curtis,


Sayle, Nelson and Whalley, the visitors had a new back tour, and, understandably, they took a little time to settle and Enfield took full advantage by scoring early on.


After this, however,


Gabriel in the home goal set the tone for the rest of the game as he tipped over a point-blank header from Penman. He followed this up with


a save from Dave Whalley and then breathtaking efforts from McLean and Walmsley. Veteran Paul Keighley


made some storming runs from full back, and when he picked out Penman, it looked odds on that the equaliser had arrived, but Gabriel somehow kept out the striker's effort. The second half was


almost a repeat perform­ ance, although Enfield had a couple of good chances as Rimington pushed men for-' ward. But the last word was to


go to Gabriel as Mankows- ki looped a header over him, but somehow he got back to palm the ball over. Andrew Plartley was


Rock Rovers, seeing the


game, and possibly the title, slip away from them, threw everyone forward. With 15 minutes to go,


they ensured a tense finish to the game. Rimington's defence had


three attempts to clear the ball, and a Rock player pounced and rounded the keeper to score. ’The Colne side had Rim­


ington on the ropes, and attacked at every opportuni­


ty. And with two minutes to


go, Gary Brunskill brought down a Rock forward just inside the bo.x. Danny Anderson guessed


the right way and got a hand to the ball, but the well-taken kick levelled the game. Rock celebrated like they


had won the game, but there was a final twist. Haslam was sent do\vn the right and whipped a ball into


the box. And with literally the last


touch of the game, Glen Dinsdale rose to head the ball into the top right-hand cor-


rightly given man-of-the- match for Rimington in his first game at centre half, and he promises to be a great addition to the side for next season. Manager Terry Braith-


waite summed up the sea­ son: "The lads have been great and are disappointed to have come second after the success of the previous year, which just shows how far we have come and the standards we are now set­ ting ourselves. "We have drawn more


games this time, and we must turn those into wins in the future. “We have conceded just


29 in 26 games and scored 72. so they are good statis­


tics really.” He added; "I am disap­


pointed that we were knocked out of the cups at the quarter-final stage so this is another area we will look to improve in next sea­ son. "Congratulations to


Andy Holden and his Hurst Green team, they are wor­ thy champions and have raised the bar for the rest of us to target. "Thanks go to last week's


sponsors Lynne Pate and H.S. McPherson and all our sponsors during the season. Also to Dave and Stan for their sterling work.”


Hurst Green..................7


and felt that his team could not have played with any greater desire, a hallmark of the team he has moulded. They now go on to meet


local rivals Langho in the final at Padiham’s Arbories ground on Thursday with a 7 p.m. kick-off. This promises to be a


highly competitive match, with both teams capable of playing entertaining foot­ ball.


^ WADDINGTONFC lira ensured they will fin­ ish as runners-up in the Craven League Premier Division by virtue of two victories in the past week. Needing only four points


Peel Park........................0 from four games, the team EAST Lancashire League was in positive mood to champions Hurst Green stayed bang on course for a league and cup double when they demolished Peel Park in this President’s Cup semi-final at Langho. Fitter, stronger and quicker than their spirited opponents, Hurst Green were deadly from set pieces and easily won through. It took just 10 minutes


for the champions to open the scoring when Mark Young struck with a tremendous free kick from 30 yards out. They doubled the lead 10


minutes later through Nicky Wilkinson, who headed home from close range after Tony Coupe headed back a Simon Tip- ton corner. And before the break, the


outstanding Andy Whaites headed home a Young cor­ ner.


Wilkinson showed quick


reactions to make it 4-0 from close range when he converted another Tipton corner, and the fifth came when Alan Goar showed good strength and pace to beat the Peel Park keeper when one-on-one. Tipton crashed home an


unstoppable volley from a narrow angle to make it six, and then had a penalty superbly saved when lively substitute Danny Walker was fouled. The energetic Ian Simp­


son completed the scoring when he raced clear from midfield and finished clini­ cally. Manager Andy Holden


was delighted with the per­ formance and the result.


lilackburn Rovers Ladies ........... 7 Fulham........................................7 ROVERS Ladies held on to fourth spot in the National Division table with a draw' at home to relegated Ful­ ham on Sunday. The Shawbridge-based side started w'ell and opened the scoring with less


secure second position in the league as soon as possi­ ble.


First the side won a


thriller with Skipton LMS by the odd goal in nine. ■ The villagers stormed


into an early two-goal lead through Rob Lloyd and' Stephen Holden. Midway through the first


half Skipton pulled a goal back to give the side a slen­ der 2-1 lead at the interval. After the break, the visi­


tors were gifted three goals, due to poor defending. However, credit must go


to the players, as all looked to be lost, but the team threw everything but the kitchen sink forward, and they drew level with a fur­ ther two goals from Lloyd, who completed his hat- trick.


And with three minutes


remaining, Eddie Snowden scored with a fierce close- range shot to give Wadding- ton a 5-4 lead. Skipton came back,


though, and after a rash challenge, the visitors were awarded a penalty with only 30 seconds remaining. However, a reflex save


from Waddington keeper Wayne Leach ensured all three league points went to Waddington. Waddington then beat


Cononley 2-1. The locals took a


deserved lead on 15 minutes when a flowing move from back to front ended with Pete Fletcher crossing tor Paul Tierney to net. And they added a second


just before the interval when Anton Gawthorp


than three minutes on the clock. Just seconds after sending a free


header inches wide of the post, Caz Di.xon scored her second goal in as many games with a looping right-foot volley from 25 yards out. But Fulham earned a point cour­ tesy of Charmaine Benham’s equaliser


headed home a well-deliv­ ered free kick from Ben Parsons. The visitors scored mid­


way through the second half, but Waddington held on to win. On Saturday, Wadding­


ton face Oxenhope at Roe- field, kick-off 2 p.m., play­ ers to meet at Roefield at 1- 15 p.m. 'Then on Tuesday, the


team face a trip to Embsay, kick-off 6-30 p.m. Players to meet at Waddington Arms at 5-15 p.m. Following the resignation


of Jim Tierney, the club is seeking a manager for the first team. Any person who is inter­


ested in this position should contact the club secretary Pat Laxton on 01200 428424. And the outgoing manag­


er would like to express his gratitude to everyone at the club: "I would like to take the opportunity to thank all players and committee members for their support over the past two seasons, and also to all sponsors and supporters of the club. "Their support tor


Waddington is very much appreciated."


Church Town................S Dog Inn ....................... 2 DOG Inn’s hopes of finish­ ing their first top-flight sea­ son as runners-up receded, as they limped to a heavy defeat to the impressive league champions at Wil­ son's. Already without Nick


Fielding and Rick Grafton, the loss of Liam Hill and Anthony Dobson on the morning of the match meant that the Athertons'- sponsored Whalley side had just tw'elve available players for this key game. That was compounded


by the early loss of key mid­ fielder Dan Holgate. By then Dan's 'twin


brother Tom, pressed into emergency service up front, had equalised, following an early Church goal, only for the champions to regain the lead moments later. Although the scoreline flattered Church, they went on to complete a comfort­ able victory, with Holgate's second goal scant consola­ tion.


on 33 minutes. After breaking through on goal, the Fulham striker ciipped the ball over the onrushing Sian Payne and into the back of the net. Katie Anderton almost restored


Rovers' lead with a fine solo run and shot shortly after, on an afternoon of few clear-cut chances for either side.


Batting lets locals down


ANOTHER poor per­ formance saw Chatburn fall to a massive 136-run defeat at Ingrow. On a good wicket,


Chatburn chose to field after winning the toss, but all the edged shots went to spaces. Youngster


John


Reynolds was brought into the team and took wickets at regular inter­ vals, and Rod Booth backed him up with a decent spell, and at 79-7 Ingrow looked in trouble. However, their last


four batsmen put on 110 to set 190 for the locals to chase. Chatburn's batting


was poor from the outset. Ingrow rattled through the order, the villagers showed no resilience or application and were bowled out for 53. Meanwhile, Nick Hutchinson was the hero as Chatburn seconds recorded a seven-wicket w'in over Foulridge. The Pendle side batted


first and scored 177-6 after the allotted overs. Chris Mulhearn was


the most successful bowler with 3-47, and the other wicket takers were Ben Frankland, Geoff Lambert and Rob Devine. Frankland also took four catches. In reply, an opening


partnership of 153, with an excellent 100 from Hutchinson and 42 from John Moore, paved the way for victory.


Rugby stars rewarded


GLITHEROE Buccan- neers’ season ended with medal presentations for each age group. The club's mini and


junior players-of-the- year were: Under 7s, Jack Crocker; Under 8s, Kier- an Meadows; Under 9s, Sam Hill; Under 10s, Will Harrison; Under 11s, Will Lawton; Under 12s, Francis Devine; U13/14S, Tom Back­ house, Joe Glover: U15s, Alex Robinson.


Graham is only winner


MAN-of-the-match Gra­ ham Robinson was one of only two Clitheroe win­ ners at St Annes in Sun­ day's Super, League Darts match. He won his game 3-1


with an average of 81.21, and the other local win­ ner was Jimmy Harg­ reaves (average 63.70). . The ladies only mar­


ginally improved on the men's game with a 5-3 defeat against Accring­ ton. The winners were Lil­


ian Tomlinson (2-1, aver­ age 40.77), Audrey Southwell (2-0, 37.11) and player-of-the-match Sally Slater (2-1,44.36).
