This weeks matches which give the leaders a chance to extend their 4 point lead with the Droops having a week off...... 8-)
Which we did...... thanks to a good all round team performance. ;D
Eight Bells 5 Horns Lodge 0
Bill Kerr 2,760 - 1,630 Dave Guildford
Scrappy game thanks to the balls ending up in all sorts of awkward positions, a red ball into the 200 got Dave back in the match at one stage but Bill was always in control. 1-0 ;)
Colleen Park 1,910 - 940 Ben Procter
A slightly nervy start to the game, but Colleen got the balls back to put in a nice break of about 1k. Ben battled hard but couldn't close the gap. 2-0 ;D
Tony Jenner 5,090 - 3,310 Steve Smith
Best game of the night with both players being rewarded for attacking the table and playing good shots. Steve had nearly caught up with a good break leaving Tony relieved to play the table out for a good win. 3-0 ;)
Henry Brooks 4,690 - 1,760 Geoff Winson
H opened with about 3k but couldn't get the balls back after that. Geoff was unlucky to peg 1.7k and seemed to get the break back every time he went to the table but just couldn't keep them going. 4-0 ;)
Dave Ingram 8,150 - 540 Mick Palmer
Mick off fairly early and we had a couple of visits each before I got the break back for 5k, with a couple more smaller breaks later. 5-0 ;)
A good result for us which puts some pressure onto the chasing Droops & Bridge Teams..... 8-)
I have to say - what a difference a fortnight (and a different night of the week! 8-)) makes to this as a venue..... :o :o
The atmosphere was great (no village idiots in the bar :P, just the players from the 2 teams! 8-)) in the pub tonight, we had the juke box on (in the background! 8-)) and the choice of music (Colleen & BigTJ) was so good that the barman even gave them some money as he was enjoying it so much....!! ;D ;D
A lovely Chilli with Rice and Nachos to follow..... 8-)
What a shame that Wednesday's can't be like that....... ::) :-X :-X
