DUCK TROPHY RACE HOTTING UP
  After this weekend's fixtures, the race for the most prestigeous prize in Langhom Cricket Club: The Douglas Beattie Duck Trophy is hotting up. Spx who has been leading for weeks, is now a worried man as two youngsters are hot on his tail feathers. Jack Pool's Golden Duck on Saturday and Euan Wilson failing to score yesterday have brought them equal with Spx. With only a few games left my moneys on Jack! For those of you to young to remember, Dougie(above right) played between 1994-2005, in 19 1st XI Innings he only troubled the scorer 5 times.
