Ged Smith produced a Man of The Match performance, including a sublime 25 yard free kick goal, as Longridge took their Title challenge down to the final game of the season next Saturday at Blackpool Wren Rovers.
Town were missing top scorer Brad Carsley due to unforeseen circumstances, so Manager Lee Ashcroft played the returning Mark Woods up front with support from Ash Ball and Jordan Bowen.
It was a complete change of style for Town without Carsley as a renowned front man but I'd paid off straightaway as Ball and the effervescent Woods chased the visiting defence into blind alleys.
Vickers were struggling to cope and committed several fouls early on, one which resulted in a free kick to Longridge 25 yards from goal after just 11 minutes.
Ged Smith, playing at left back as Danny Morris moved inside to partner Captain George Melling, stepped up to curl a sublime free kick into the far corner that went in off the post, leaving the visiting keeper no chance. 1-0 to Longridge , and any pre match nerves in this must win game were surely calmed.
If that wasn't enough, just 7 minutes later Ryan 'The Horse' McKenna scored the second goal, firing home at the far post to put Town two up. His celebration was one not seen at the MRG for some time, and the crowd favourite clearly enjoyed his first strike of the season for Longridge as he made his way back to the half way line, to the applause of the biggest crowd of the season at Town with 161 attending the final home game of 2016/17.
Vickerstown created an excellent chance after 30 minutes, which Lee Dovey in the home goal did well to save with his feet, as prolific Vickers goalscorer Danny Keenan broke free to fire a right footed goal bound shot.
Town remained in control however and, with Mark Woods looking dangerous in a central role,they had several efforts saved by the Vickerstown keeper as Longridge looked to kill the game before the break . It wasn't to be though as the teams went in with Town 2-0 up at half time.
Jack Preston was brought on at half time in place of the injured Ash Ball, who had had an excellent first half, but Town were on the defensive as the visitors started the second half on the front foot.
Dovey made an excellent save just two minutes into the half, touching a goal bound shot onto the post, before crowd favourite Joe Melling reacted to clear the danger.
Vickers youngster Jackson Round, just 17, was causing Town problems with his touch and pace, as they enjoyed a good spell of pressure but the home defence held firm as they looked to preserve their two goal lead.
Jack Preston was easing himself into the game, holding the ball up well, as Woods and Bowen moved forward beyond him, and he had an excellent turn and shot saved by the Vickerstown keeper on the hour.
Preston clearly grew in confidence from this moment onwards and his movement and hold up play helped Longridge retain possession at a vital point in the game.
Jordan Tucker replaced the injured Joe Melling with twenty minutes to go, and slotted in seamlessly at right back as Town looked to see the game out.
With 15 minutes left Vickerstown youngster Jackson Round produced a moment of magic that belonged at a far higher level than this, controlling a high clearance from the keeper with a superb touch,before finishing past Dovey into the top corner with the outside of his right foot.
To the relief of the home crowd, the flag was raised for offside but the 17 year old Round jogged back to the half way line with the applause of everyone watching ringing in his ears. It was worth many times more than the £3 admission and, on another day, could've put Town's title hopes in jeopardy.
Town settled into a professional game plan after this, keeping the ball at will, knowing that the win was vital as they travel to title rivals Wren Rovers next Saturday in, what is now a 'winner takes all' title match.
After the game Manager Lee Ashcroft was delighted with his teams performance, and the crowd turnout, as he commented , " I'm very pleased, which takes some doing I can assure you! We were in control for almost the whole game, with two early goals which settled us down and allowed us to play to our strengths. We've missed both Ash and Woodsy ( through suspension) and they made a difference for us today. Ged was excellent at the back, scoring a great goal, and Alex O'Rourke was once again outstanding."
"It's all still in our own hands, and it was brilliant to see the biggest crowd of the season down today to cheer the lads on. This Club has great potential and the interest for the Football Club in the town is clear for all to see. We travel to Wren's next Saturday knowing that a win will give us our first ever West Lancashire League Premier Division Title, and that would be a fantastic achievement for everyone involved, when you think that just 10 years ago we were playing on the Rec in the District League."
Next Saturday sees Town travel to title rivals Blackpool Wren Rovers, level on 80 points each, with the winner being crowned Champions for the 2016/17 season.
"Sean Walsh, 26, from Dungarvan in County Waterford, has not contacted anyone since he was last seen five days ago, which is “completely out of character” for him, according to his sisters.
Mr Walsh was last seen by his flatmates at his home in Randwick in Sydney’s eastern suburbs about 3am last Sunday. According to friends he had not been himself in recent days, was withdrawn and kept to himself, and had disappeared without taking any of his belongings.
An extensive air and land search by police of nearby suburbs, beaches and parklands failed to uncover any sign of Mr Walsh, who has lived in Australia since November as part of a round-the-world trip.
His worried sisters Brid and Mairhead flew to Sydney this week to begin their personal search for their brother, who they said usually contacts the family in Ireland at least once or twice a week via the phone, email or the Facebook social networking site.
“He has a very close relationship with my mother and the rest of us, and is in regular contact. For him to go missing like that is completely out of character," Brid Walsh told the Sydney Morning Herald.
"It doesn't make any sense to any of us. We have no explanation at all. We have nothing to follow through as to why this has happened. His parents are absolutely worried, but they have a lot of support from home."
Meanwhile friends have set up a website – www.seanwalshmissing.com – and have begun posting messages on social networking sites to widen the search on the internet.
Gill Mahoney, a friend of Ms Walsh, posted a message on a Lonely Planet travel forum seeking information and asking people to forward the message on in the hope that a chain mail will uncover new information.
“Brid and her sister Mairead are currently in Sydney searching but they are only two people and any information would be greatly appreciated,” she wrote on the site. “We all know someone over there and you would never know who could have seen him in Sydney over the weekend.”
Mr Walsh was applying for a job as a biomedical engineer and had been active in Sydney’s tight-knit Irish community, where he was a popular member of the local Gaelic football. He was set to fly back to Ireland later this month for a holiday with his family.
NSW police have appealed to the public for any information about the whereabouts of Mr Walsh, for whom they hold “serious concerns for his welfare”.
“We have escalated our response based on the concerns of the family,” Detective Inspector Paul Pisanos of Maroubra Police said.
“We are not treating it as a suspicious death, but as a high risk missing person. It is definitely out of character.”
Looks like my beloved Lamy pen has gone …. last used in Air Coffee Castle Hill but no where to be found… though I always live in hope that it might turn up somewhere.
I am not totally Lamy-pen less as I have my gold nib black and sliver Joy which is a little heavier and a little too expensive to lose (the nib is worth a lot more than the pen). I much prefer the older model(black and red) to use and my hand has a special bond with it… I put that pen in my hand and the creative juices just start pumping… not to mention the travels that we have had together.
I am not easily able to replace the black and red Joy as it is no longer available here in Australia… so might try to source it overseas…
I have been having a bad run lately….. a few weeks ago I lost the necklace I wore nearly every day for years (it has definitely gone- fell out of my pocket one morning) and my tom tom and sunglasses disappeared 2 weeks ago only to re-emerge on the weekend in strange locations. But these are only 'things' and ultimately not that important….just a touch frustrating that I seem to be so careless/scatter brained at the moment!

I lost my dad to cancer today, March 17, 2012. In this photo is a picture of me playing on my dad as a small child. I bought the Cancer Sucks bracelet last year at the hospital he was being treated at.

So many times when the city seems to be
Without a friendly face, a lonely place
It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you
And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile
According to the widely accepted darwinian theory, human beings evolved over billions of years from extremely simple organisms to walking talking man as we know him today.
The theories missing link however is what consciousness is and how it evolved.
Why is this essential?
Because whatever knowledge we receive comes through the medium of our consciousness, and therefore without understanding the true nature of consciousness we can’t perfectly understand what appears in it.
Bhagavad Gita provides the missing link in the contemporary search for knowledge by addressing consciousness from the second chapter, describing it as a nonmaterial energy that can exist with or without a material body.
It also provides a practical process to purify our consciousness, awakening its full potential.
Anyone seen my baby? Where's my baby? Oh my, oh my, oh my! I'm so worried....
One minute he's sitting here drinking my beer and passing out and the next he's gone!
There were a couple of little kids hanging around -- a little girl with yellow hair and a little boy with a frightened look on his face. If you have any information regarding this monkeynapping please call the local authorities.
On September 10, 2012 the backyard gate in a Carlsbad Springs home (just outside of Ottawa, ON) was mysteriously found open and Fritz missing. Fritz is tattooed and microchipped.
His people are very anxious to have him back home where he belongs. If you think you may know of Fritz's whereabouts, please call.
