Stags Head A 3  - 2  Alexandra

Martin Smith *	5410	1310	James Whittle
Jim Millward	60	10680	Dave Ingram *
Bob Hall	6810	6510	Michael Wilson *
Mark James *	9900	6230	Rick Cunningham

3			2

Breaks Dave Ingram 8920, Mark James 9900 and Tony Jenner 8570.

Martin off at 5k+ giving James a chance but James miscued and missed the ball, Martin then lost another 5k and another 2k but never in danger.

Dave showed everyone how to play a range of shots to stay on the table and amassed a 8920 break leaving Jim only about 4 minutes.

Michael off at over 4k, Bob balls back but off at 3k. After some tap of the table play Bob first to get them back and looked as though going to cruise to the win but off giving Michael a chance. Michael getting within range when the bar dropped, a good bit of maths and shots meant Michael needed the 200 to win by 10 but went high. Bob went high on the 100. Michael readjusted and dead on line but agonisingly hung over the pocket and Bob made sure.

Mark opened with 9900 giving Rick no chance but Rick two breaks for a decent score.

I opened with 8570 starting off well but getting scrappy as I lost the pace of the one up so gave Geoff a very slight chance but for the whole game whatever Geoff tried he managed to find the white pegs. A much better effort by us this time around but still a loss.

As usual a good night at the Stag.
