LIPHOOK'S VILLAGE CUP OPPONENTS HIT BY BIBLICAL STORM

Operation Mop Up has been in full swing in the Huntingdonshire hamlet of Eaton Socon this week ahead of Sunday's Village Cup fifth round tie against Southern Premier League Division 2 visitors Liphook & Ripsley - the winners of which will be in the national quarter-finals.
This was the scene after a storm of Biblical proportions hit Eaton halfway through last week's fourth round tie with Blackheath, which had to be decided by a bowl-out after the Surrey side had posted 148. With the RNLI unable to launch any lifeboats, Eaton Socon paddled across to the nets and celebrated a 4-1 stump hit victory.  This is only their second season in the Village Cup in which Liphook were Lord's finalists two seasons ago.
