LANCASTER v BLACKPOOL
Blackpool's Andy Griffiths reports: Our 2nd XI travel to Lancaster determined to continue applying pressure on runaway league leaders Chorley, and with other teams set to capitalise on our inactivity for the last 2 weeks in August (due to the Lancs vs Surrey County Championship Game being hosted at Stanley Park from 27th - 30th August), it is vital that we get as many points on the board before our enforced lay-off. Andy Griffiths returns to captain a youthful side with recognition for excellent performances in the 3rd, 4th and Sunday XI's (as well as in junior cricket) being given to first-time starters (this season) Mike Tidmas and Nathan Bird, who are both key members of our Under 15 team.
