Crewe and District League, Premier Division
Winnington Avenue 4 Cuddington 0 (att 27)
On Monday night I watched Cuddington win at home to move level on points with league leaders Winnington Avenue, and with a superior goal difference put themselves in the driving seat.
But they'd been lucky to beat Rudheath's reserves, and another lacklustre performance tonight saw them soundly beaten by their fellow title challengers.
Winnington scored twice in each half, and could easily have added more. Cuddington, seemingly feeling the effects of a hectic end-of-season schedule, rarely threatened, and seemed to know the game was out of reach once the home side scored their second goal.
Winnington played some good football, but the game was too one-sided to be truly entertaining. Both teams play their final league games on Saturday, and Winnington would seem unlikely to slip up away to bottom-of-the-table Malpas reserves.
Nor surprisingly, Winnington Avenue's ground, Jubilee Field, is found on Winnington Avenue, in the Winnington area of Northwich. Changing rooms and a car park are at the entrance, from where the large main pitch runs lengthways. There are two smaller pitches, and two small dugouts, though they could scarcely be described as a pair as one is positioned by the main pitch, and the other faces it but from the far side of the second pitch.
