1st XV MATCH OFF TODAY

Waterlogged pitch at Littlemoor

Saturday, 13 December 2008By Roger Holmes

The 1st XV game against North Manchester has bee postponed again. This time the pitch is far far too wet after a thaw of 10 days ice plus heavy over night rain gave us no option.

Anyway the cost of rescuing our heavyweight Skipper from the mire with a helicopter is more than the Club finances will stand.

This means the 1st XV have not had a competitve match since the 15th November, when they beat Hawcoat Park at Littlemoor. Three postponements is not the ideal preparation.
This coming Sat. [20th] they travel for a tricky encounter at Windermere.

Meanwhile the Cavaliers host Preston GH at Littlemoor [hopefully]
