Curzon Ashton v Clitheroe

Afraid I "picked a wrong'un" this midweek - the first half was hard work ... for the speccies that is ... and the second half only really burst into life with a goal for Clitheroe (who were looking to put a 0-5 home reverse on Saturday behind them - which they certainly did !) and a red card for Ogoo (who I'm afraid made a bit of a prat of himself after the card was brandished).

There was much shouting (from the Curzon side) at the performance of the officials - they weren't that bad - felt it was a smokescreen to hide a rather poor performance from the home side on the night. Play-off status is assured (albeit with an away trip to .. somewhere) - they were without two important midfielders (and it showed with the amount of by-passing and "over the top" stuff ... so if you're going to have a duff one - do it now before the really important games start

Here's a few pix from the evening ...

Curzon Ashton 0 Clitheroe 1

Maybe I should have picked Glossop's 2-2 draw against Squires Gate last night ... or Stalybridge v Droylsden tonight (Match Centre says 2-1 to Celtic at the moment - 78 minutes) - whatever ! Still this Saturday to sort out yet ....

Just got the "txt of doom" - Durham City 6 Mossley 1 ................ and Rory Patterson (who couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo in his time at Mossley) has scored a last minute equaliser for Droylsden at Stalybridge ... this is "real-time blogging" at its best !!!!!!
