wish to thank aIl Advertisers, sponsors Thorn Electrical and suppliers cf strip Umbro International for their support A Message jrom the President of the Lancashire County

1 am delighted to have this opportunity of warmly welcoming Cheshire Players, Officiais and Supporters to this County Championship. Long may they continue.

Lancashire approach the challenge in good heart with two pre-competition wins and a great victory against Yorkshire at the lovely Lidget Green, last Saturday. Our visitors also must be full of confidence following their fine win against Cumbria at Wilmslow and we look forward to agame which we hope will prove as fasCÎn­ ating and attractive as Many previous encounters between these two sides.

ln the event, may we have a match that will prove a credit to the game and the County Championship as so many Lancashire a.nd Cheshire competitions have in the past.

1 am pleased to thank Waterloo Football Club for their hospitality. Over many years they have given tremendous support to Lancashire and it is always a great pleasure to be at Blundellsands. Sincerely, Jim Walsh JAMES WALSH President of [he Lancashire County R. F. U. LANCASHIRE
