Football Friendly: AFC Blackpool 1 - FC St Rochs (Glasgow) 0

AFC Blackpool picked up an impressive 1-0 home win in this friendly match against Scottish visitors St Rochs FC from Glasgow.

The game was played with spirit throughout and decided by a Ben Waddington goal midway through the first half.  St Roch - playing in a nice green colour - pressed hard throughout and had the upper hand for much of the second half.  The "Mechanics" held on, however, for a well deserved victory.

AFC Blackpool kick off their NWCFL Premier Division league campaign next Saturday - 4th August - with a trip to newly promoted Norton United.

They then play Padiham at home in the league on Tuesday evening 7th August -7.45 kick off.
