Stoneclough clinch title
5:13pm Monday 28th April 2008
Vickerstown 0 Stoneclough 2
STONECLOUGH ensured the West Lancashire League's First Division title came back to Kearsley with a fine victory over their close rivals.
Presidents Cup winners Stoneclough took control and produced some quality football before Liam Ralph punished some hesitant defending by delivering a quality cross to the far post for Nic Fisher to direct a thumping header back into the opposite corner of the net for his 18th goal of the season on the half hour.
Vickerstown came out for the second half intent on making a game of it but their best spell of the game lasted only 15 minutes as Stoneclough started to exert the pressure.
The game finished as a contest after 75 minutes when Brett Deane pounced on a loose ball in the box and lashed home from eight yards to send the travelling fans delirious.
The Clough are in action again tomorrow when they take on Atherton LR in the semi-final of the Bolton Hospital Cup at Tempest Utd.
