Match Summary The team is snapped beforehand with Monty and the title, but this is a let down. It looks good when Harris and Reid combine for Clarke to stab in, but Yeuell is caught out and Lofthouse nets. In the second half Phillips hit the bar, but Wolves are setting the pace with seven wins in eight.
