PARKWYDDN players celebrate their historic 1-0 win against Griffin.

First cup in cabinet


13/ 4/2006

'THIS is without doubt our greatest achievement' was the way Parkwyddn secretary Gordon Sackfield summed up the club's 1-0 midweek Manchester FA Sunday Amateur Cup final win against Griffin Growlers.

Mark Galbraith's 68th minute strike, which went through a ruck of players, secured the Carr and Hume Eccles Sunday League club's first County Cup trophy in their 42-year history.

It was a proud moment for Parkwyddn president Ged Newsham, who watched the hard fought game between two evenly matched sides from his wheelchair.

Newsham helped to launch the club in 1964 and he went home happy thanks largely to a string of fine saves from Parkwyddn goalkeeper Steve Brown.

Charlestown CYC eased through to the Premier Cup final, beating Worsley 5-0.

They will meet Irlam MS in the final.
