Ribblesdale League: League denies merger claim The Lancashire Evening Telegraph - 15 July 1999 Officials of the Jennings Ribblesdale League have denied claims they have been involved in discussions about becoming a feeder league to the Northern League. But officials from the two league's have met to discuss the possibility of setting up an inter-league cup competition similar to that already being contested between the Lancashire League and the Central Lancashire League. A statement issued by the Ribblesdale League said: ``The Ribblesdale Cricket League have never intimated or discussed the possibility of becoming a feeder league to the Northern Cricket League in a Premier League pyramid system. ``We did hold a meeting with Northern League officials back in December when we discussed the possibility of setting up an inter-league cup competition similar to that already being run between the Lancashire League and the Central Lancashire League. ``But how the league progresses is very much in the hands of the clubs themselves.''
