TWO hundred spectators saw a nail-biting Atherton Charity Cup final on Tuesday night when Leigh Athletic beat Bolton side Breightmet United 2-1 after extra time at Atherton Collieries' Alder House ground.
Gordon Walker was judged man of the match.
Amateur soccer stalwart Tommy Richards aims to stage a close season display of photographs depicting local teams from pre First World War to the present day. Any profits from the exhibition will be in aid of the cup competition.
"I have quite a few photos and would welcome more. These will be returned if desired after copies have been taken," said Mr Richards. Contact him at 34 Oak Street, Tyldesley or call 01942 894869.
