Mary Clifford - Mary played
in the Five Towns Quiz League from 2005-06 and up to the end of
2021-22 when she retired from playing had amassed 242 league appearances
in the FTQL in over half the league's existence. That is some record and starting in 2005 she played most games
in all those seasons that she took part. Her most recent team was the Pontefract Cakes who played out of the Hope
& Anchor in Pontefract. As a lot of you will know, particular
if you are a Castleford supporter as I am, Mary was also a mad keen
Cas fan and in fact sponsored a player every season over a number of years. She had something of a legend about
her at Wheldon Road and legend has it that her Castleford scarf, which
has been to more Cas games than I don't know what, was an even
keener fan than Mary! Her passing has also been mentioned on the Castleford Tigers Supporters Club Facebook
page along with the replaying of a video where she extols the virtues
of supporting Castleford Tigers. Mary'a funeral will take place at Pontefract Crematorium on Wednesday 29 May
2024 at 1.40pm. Anyone is welcome to attend. Mary Clifford - died 2024
