  The West Lindsey League has played its last match after 92 years. The committee has decided to disband the league after a lack of interest left it with just five teams competing this season. Last week's Innes Cup match was the final game to be competed for. Wild Life Athletic's 2-1 win over Mono's FC was the final score to be entered into the league's records which have been dutifully kept by league secretary Eric Brocklesby for the...

And it was champion McCoy who claimed the day's feature race, the Ryan's Event Cleaning Specialists UK Handicap...

  THE big carp came out to play at a match held at Froghall Fisheries at Legbourne, near Louth. Kim Messinger had a nice 14lb fish. He certainly had his hands full as he was only using 2lb hook length and a light elastic in his pole. It took Messinger a good ten minutes to land the fish. He also lost a bigger specimen and was catching smaller fish close in. On the other side of the lake was Cleethorpes star Rob Thompson. He was...
