And today’s story of the day…
Brilliant scenes down in Carnforth today as Richard Downham played 50 minutes for @kirkbylonsfc Reserves vs @CarnforthRanger A at the grand age of 68.
Sixty-eight.
Absolutely wonderful - grassroots footy at its finest.
Fair play, Richard. 👏👏

- The game was postponed on player safety grounds & due to large parts not being marked out. It was not postponed simply because it was hard. Several areas of the pitch had large craters in. The match referee made an honest call based on their judgement of potential safety issuesTonight’s match vs @KirkoswaldFC has had to be postponed to due the opinion of the referee being that it is unplayable due to being too hard. Completely out of our hands. Sorry to all involved and all that came to watch such a huge game! We go again!
