Claymore Athletic FC Focus on Replay

After a thrilling 2-2 draw in the 1st round of the Paul Cartmell Memorial Trophy, Claymore Athletic FC will battle it out again with The Cow-Faced Juniors for the right to face York’s Returning Glory in the Quarter Finals. This will be the third time the two teams have met in as many game weeks. Previously drawing 2-2 (again) in the League. Claymore’s manager, Clive Fenwick, concedes that the game will be tough “the two teams are getting to know each other rather well” said the long-serving boss. “However, I am confident that we can pull it off (not sure what it is they intend to pull - editor) even with the injuries to key players. I believe our squad is strong enough to get a result”.

New signing, David Di Michele, is unlikely to feature, as he acclimatises to the great British weather. The 32 year old striker, signed from Torino on Monday, for £500,000, is expected to challenge Rooney, Owen and Alves for a starting place, in the not too distant future.
