Llandudno praying for no repeat performance

Romida North Wales Cricket League weekend preview

BEFORE last Saturday’s debacle against St Asaph, you’d have put your mortgage on Llandudno beating Llay Welfare tomorrow.

The premier division pacesetters, who hold a six-point lead over Mochdre, will still be favourites to win their match against the side currently occupying last place in the table.

But that would have been the same situation prior to Llandudno’s total capitulation just under a week ago when they were bowled out by St Asaph for 18.

Mochdre go to Mold hoping for a repeat performance from Llandudno who surely can’t play as bad as they did again on their last outing.

Don’t count Menai Bridge out of the title race either. Just 14 points behind the leaders, they are not out of the running and a win at home to Connah’s Quay will maintain the pressure on the top two.

Fourth hosts fifth as Pontblyddyn try to hold off a buoyant St Asaph whose bowlers Dave North and Matthew Hulse are still buzzing from that clinical display against Llandudno – both took five wickets each.

Meanwhile, Denbigh entertain Brymbo and relegation-threatened Bangor will look to close the gap on Northop directly above them.

Division one pacesetters Llanrwst, unbeaten in 13 games, try to keep that record intact at home to Chirk with second-placed Hawarden Park playing mid-table Halkyn.
