Semi Final:

Mexborough St. Johns 1 Fitzwilliam 2

Also from minutes – “Secretary to write to Brian Hyde to thank him for refereeing the Totty Cup and Barlow-Salmons Finals”

In the minutes, it mentions Sacred Heart .v. Wath Central (implying that this was the other semi-final) – which contradicts that Thorogate won the Cup??

John Dales took 5 teams to Totty Cup finals. He won it with Thorogate in 1988 and then lost it in 1991 & 1992. He then lost in 2 further finals with Monkwood: 2004 & 2005 .
