Northern end on a high note. (13.Sep. 2003)
|
Northern finished the season in style, with all four sides winning on the final day.
The 1st.XI beat Northop Hall by 2 wickets, with 3 victims each for Jon Taylor and Mike Holden.
Taylor is pictured capturing the key wicket of Pakistan test player Arshad Khan,
deceived by a clever change of pace by the Northern quickie.
Northern's reply was built around a stylish 54 from Carl Hey,
with Phil Unsworth guiding the side home in a tense last-ball finish.

Time to play 'Spot the non-Northern player' in the star-unstudded Camels line-up.
Let's make that '1) not a member, 2) never have been 1), and 3) not sired by a 1) or 2)' ...

Three Bridges. (15.Aug. 2003)
|
Our old friends from Three Bridges returned for yet another year on tour to Northern and surrounding districts.

Off the field, a few Three Bridges institutions. The fines, the broom race, the Perkins, the silly bar games.
The tour match has been a regular fixture since 1978, so is now the 26th fixture between the sides.

Big knock from pint-sized Steve. (12.Jul 2003)
|
Young Steve Cole came of age with a superb match-winning performance,
steering Northern 4ths to victory with an undefeated 83 chasing Maghull's formidable 228 target.

Congratulations also to Greg Phillips, who hit his maiden century for the 2nds against Huyton.
Greg was unbeaten on 121, having put on 221 for the first wicket with Chris Taylor.
Sadly though for Greg and Chris, it was Woosey who grabbed the photo opportunity again ...
