NON-league legend Taffy Richardson featured alongside son George in Verwood's defeat to league leaders Petersfield on Saturday.

The duo played 90 minutes of the Sydenhams Wessex Premier clash at Potterne Park but could not prevent a 3-0 loss, the visitors building on a 2-0 half-time lead.

Youngster George had been earmarked to play in his father's testimonial last summer but had not been permitted to feature as he was only 15 at the time.

Verwood are due to lock horns with local rivals Hamworthy United tomorrow evening in their second game in three days.

The clash at the County Ground has been scheduled for a 7.45pm kick-off.
