Time to take a trip down memory lane

WITH cricket suspended for the foreseeable future due to the coronavirus pandemic, it's time to take a trip down memory lane by revisiting some of Horspath's memorable matches.

In these strange and difficult times, cricket and sport may not have much relevance in the overall scheme of things, but hopefully action will return to the Recreation Ground in the not too distant future.

In the meantime, by delving into the club's archives using newspaper cuttings, photographs and match highlights from Youtube, which now stretch back over the last four seasons, it's hoped it will give us something to look forward to. 

The series starts on the website tomorrow with a cup final from almost three decades ago, and with further instalments to follow over the coming days and weeks watch this space.

If you've got a game you would like featuring or a feat of brilliant batting or bowling drop me a text or call me, Russell Smith, on 07866 953987. It doesn't have to be a 1st team game, it could be from the 2nd, 3rd or 4th XIs or a youth team fixture. Meanwhile, stay at home and stay safe.
