Buntingford v. Pirton Athletic

Tomorrow the town journey to Hitchin to replay the final of the North Herts. Benevolent Shield with Pirton Athletic, and judging from the play on Boxing Day they will have to go all the way to win.

Pirton have a fine forward line, and if the Town defence can only hold these in the first-half, Buntingford ought to pull it off, as they certainly lasted the previous game better than their opponents.

H.Pledger is suffering from influenza, so will be unable to play, otherwise the team will be at full strength.

The following are selected: Goal, R. Reed; backs, W. Hatchett and S. Thorogood; halves, H. Holmes, S. Howlett and E. Rayment; forwards, E. Moule, H. Birkett, W. May, E. Pledger and H. May.

Will supporters who are travelling to Hitchin please note that the bus starts at 1.30 sharp?
