The top team in the Clwydian Division ‘A’ was the opponent for our own ‘A’ Team in one of the two Division ‘A’ Cup Competition Semi-Finals yesterday. The win would be based on the number of wins and, if it was a draw in the number of games, then the team with the highest aggregate would receive an additional 1-point. So, at 5-games all, the only difference was a few points in the aggregate.
All the TV & Radio news broadcasters and national & local newspapers, would always predictably describe this as our team “crashing out” of the competition. But there was no crash, only the sound of our opponents knees knocking with concern. It was really a very good result for our team as only 2 other teams this season had achieved 5-or-more games wins against Rhos Park ‘A’. Well done team.
