View from the Birtles: Sale Legends 62 Prem Allstars 54

Let’s face it, the score was irrelevant. This was an occasion to wish a happy retirement to a club legend and all-around good egg: Cliffy. It was a glorious day; we drank, ate, chatted and remembered times past. I wonder whose testimonial we’ll see Cliffy pulling his boots on again for.

Thanks to everyone who put their tired, knackered old bodies through another eighty minutes for a good cause. And special thanks to Hamish Smales for reffing the game. We’ve probably abused him plenty from the South Stand, but kudos for coming down and doing it. After all: no ref, no match.
