Dewsbury Defeat (late 60's ?)

Post by Luca Brazzi »

I remember (a good while ago) being beaten at home by Dewsbury in a night match at Central Park....the score was about 16-20 .....I remember being mightily vexed in my short kecks and could barely sleep but I can't find any record of the match.

Did it exist ???

It was certainly well before the circa 1973 title winning Dewsbury team that featured the lunatic "Stevo" (although he was a good player for sure)

Any help/ideas/suggestions ?

Date score etc
