AND FINALLY Stelrad sponsors ‘behind closed doors’ Montagu Cup Final
Radiator manufacturer Stelrad has continued its support for a local charity through its support for the Montagu Cup – a football tournament that is entered each year by teams across South Yorkshire and one which can trace its history back more than a century. The Final usually takes place on Easter Monday but was delayed this year as a result of the Covid-19 Pandemic. As there was no money raised by spectators this year, Stelrad made a donation of £300, which covered nearly all the costs of the competition.
PRIZE CROSSWORD
This year’s final featured Swinton Athletic and Westville FC with Swinton running out 5-2 winners in a good game that was closer than the score might suggest. The cup was presented by Stelrad’s Shaun Wilkinson, whose two sons – Curtis and Alex both played and scored for Swinton in the final. Wilkinson is himself a three times Montagu Cup winner in his playing days and is believed to be the only former medal holder that has presented medals to a son in the history of the competition.
