Onan increasingly windy and colder day, Penwortham duly beat Thornton Cleveleys with ease at the small but decent Illawalla home of Thornton. Situated next to the River Wyre and an ideal spot to park if you like riverside walks, near the ground is the home of Fleetwood Town ex Chairman, Andy Piley, unfortunately Andy is presently in Strangeways central or somewhere similar for a bit of creative accounting for which he got 13 years.
The ground is small both straight boundaries no more than 40 yards a bit like Sophia Gardens
enny were put in and in the end racked up 199 mainly due to Dimasi who scored 84, an odd innings looked quality hitting the ball straight and flicking the ball of his hip, but got becalmed for a long period before reaching 50, when he then adopted the everything must go method racingto his final score before being given out LBW a decision which seemed to not impress him.
Hr received good support from Hamsa, who defended in his partnership with the opener before attacking more once Hamsai departed, Chiolm and Sackfield took 9 wickets between them
At 45-8 Thornton were up the creek of manure without a paddle opener Rolinson had made 27 of them, a useful partnership between Hedges and Curwen gave them a bit of respectability but they fell woefully short. Finnerty basically bowled through the innings taking 6 wickets.
Decent amount of folks watching and the match also had full radio coverage which the Palace Shield does everyweek

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
