LILY ANN’s IN SAFE HANDS

ALAN, Tracey and baby Lily Ann

CRICKET:

CHILD’S PLAY... Royton Cricket Club skipper Alan Durose and his partner Tracey England have much to celebrate during the build-up to the club’s Wood Cup final against Middleton on Sunday.

Tracey gave birth to their first child, Lily Ann, who weighed in at 7lb 3oz at Oldham Royal Hospital on Monday morning.

Alan is hoping the arrival of Lily Ann is a positive omen for Royton as the club bid for the first Wood Cup triumph in their history.
