Claverdon eye treble success on Saturday after winning league and cup

MANAGER Graham Waterworth insists Claverdon will be fired up to complete the most remarkable finale to a season in the club’s history with a treble on Saturday.

Claverdon lifted the most prestigious cup in the Birmingham League last Tuesday, thanks to an 86th-minute goal, then swept aside the Division One leaders on Thursday before turning around an eight-goal deficit on the final Saturday of the season with a 10-1 thumping away win to become champions.

This weekend they have the chance to retain the league’s Intermediate Cup, with Claverdon favourites to oust Division Two side Northfield Town in the final at Boldmere St Michaels.
