Clitheroe played their final league game of the season at asun drenched Littlemooron Saturday, but lost out to an ef ficient Old Bedians side.
The home team just couldn’t reproduce the intensity of the previous week’s home win for long enough periods of the game. . An expectant end of sea
son crowd was buoyed by Clit heroe’s immediate desire to attack the visitors’ line at eve ry opportunity. Clitheroe’s high-tempo game seemed to have Bedians nonplussed as their defence retreated with some alacrity. The town team were over
the whitewash with hardly lo minutes on the clock. Fitting ly it was the captain Nathan Peel whoscampered over and was on hand with the conver sion.
Gradually Bedians began
to claw their way back into thegameahdfor most of the second quarter Clitheroe got bogged down in their own half. A penalty for the visitors

as neither side could make much headway initially. But Bedians broke the deadlock, scoring what proved to be a decisive try after 20 minutes. Clitheroe responded gal lantly but Bedians defence
was well organised and held firm.

XV squad against.a second XV laden with ringers. Past members and visitors often supplement the'teams, se lected by the President and Chairman.
