This week we travel to Preston to play in the quarter final of the North West Cup. As we enter the second half of the season it is nice to still be in contention in all of the competitions that we have entered.

Preston S.F.A have an tradition of producing strong, well organised teams. For many years they were led by the late Mr Dick Clegg who is a legend in schools’ football. I had the pleasure of meeting Dick on several occasions and he was the ultimate professional and a credit to the game.

If we do manage to progress to the semi finals a ‘blockbuster’ tie with Liverpool is our reward.

Training will take place on the astro turf at Canon Slade School on Wednesday 1st February with a 4pm start. It is essential that you contact Mr Harrison-Scott if you are unable to attend but would like to be considered for selection for the Preston game.

 

Best wishes

Mr Jackson
