1st XV at Carnforth; Cavaliers welcome Blackpool

Old rivals meet yet again

Wednesday, 5 November 2008By Roger Holmes

The 1st XV make the well trodden journey up the M6 to old friends Carnforth this weekend.
Both clubs seem to be having trouble finding form this season. Carnforth yet to register a win, and Cltheroe with just the solitary victory to crow about.
Always a close and hard fought game against the 'Railwaymen' but always a warm welcome in the Club afterwards.

Meanwhile at Littlemoor, the Cavaliers host Blackpool. The seasiders lie 12th in the division but have had some close matches, so skipper Simon 'Windy' Rawstron will have his troops well focused on the task ahead.
Our Referee is a familiar face to Clitheroe rugby watchers, Mr. Bob Clayfield. Who seems to have been visiting us for the last 50 years; but of course will be made very welcome. [ko 2.30]
